A fragment of my life's soundtrack at 35:

i hope you people take my suggestions on the faint and stellastarr*! stellastarr* sometimes sounds a little like the cure, but mostly in the singing. kinda similar to the pixies also. i dont know what to relate the faint to, but they are very good, such a

I love Interpol, and I've been a huge Coldplay fan since I heard "Yellow" on London's XFM over the Internet. I work for an indie label called Know-It-All Records, and I signed two New Wave artists to the label: Peter Coyle, the vocalist of the '80s Liverp

How anyone can say that New Wave as a whole doesn't make any money or turn a profit is beyond me.If this is true than how come when radio stations like KROQ and WLIR were huge in the 80's and got huge ratings? I remember seeing WLIR's van everywhere when

for people who like the cure and the pixies, definitely try stellastarr*

for people who like madness and the specials, definitely try no doubt

for people who like new wave in general, definitely try hot hot heat, the faint, and the network

2)I'm living in Chicago, so I'm sick to death of Hot Hot Heat.

3) If the whole world listened to more Flaming Lips, t
