One of the sites I visit the most often is THE HYPE MACHINE, where I never cease to discover great new music (in case you haven't checked it out, just scroll down to find it in my links). HypeM have just published their MUSIC BLOG ZEITGEIST with the top 50 bands of the year according to how frequently the blogs listed (including yours truly) posted their songs.
Here is the top 20 - you can chech out the full top 50 as well as top albums and songs here:
- MGMT
- Radiohead
- Cut Copy
- Hot CHip
- Vampire Weekend
- Lykke Li
- Santogold
- Justice
- Fleet Fox
- Bloc Party
- Bon Iver
- Beck
- Kanye West
- N.A.S.A feat M.I.A
- Death Cab for Cutie
- M83
- TV on the Radio
- Feist
- Crystle Castles
- Sigur Ros
I have to confess I feel a bit smug to see that ZEROCAST featured 8 out of the top 10 and 17 out of the top 20 - highlighted in bold in the list. You can check out all of ZEROCAST issues here and see you at the end of 2009 to check if we have improved on the score.
