That list is kind of hard to read but I think I only know 5 of them.
But then I'm old, so it doesn't really mean anything.
"The War on Drugs" is a great name for a band, btw.

36, I've heard of. Probably half of that, I've heard the music.

WFUV.org streaming for old people (me) XPoNential stream and a couple others keep me in the loop, mostly.

Didn't read them all, but I know many or most.

Is the head and the heart a big band? I did a poster for them.

....boy BANDS....??

Die Antwoord ought to be interesting...usually are. Not everyone's cup of tea certainly...

Heard of more than a few. "Know" only a couple. As far as I can tell, I should add - because I agree, that list is too hard to read.

I've heard of 9 of them; am familiar with the music of 5 of the 9. Have seen one in concert (opening for someone else).
