Let's start an argument.

Any reason why I should give any of these on my 'avoid' list another listen?

Art School Girlfriend

Black Country New Road

Bodega

Grimm Grimm

Idles

Jockstrap

Just Mustard

Pig

Scalping

A Krasnyi avoid list----i always translate that as a recommendation list.Though Jockstrap sound terrible to my ears.

Lee Fields and Durand Jones are not the type of music I enjoy listening to and Whitney were the only band I hated last time they played but they are getting so many good reviews I will give them another listen,I am more than happy to watch the rest of your must sees but I have a long list this year after last year's list which I had written on the back of a postage stamp there we will be difficult choices this year.

Little argument from me. Black Country New Road are the exception - I'm not even sure I like them but they're definitely interesting and I enjoyed them screaming "I'm more than adequate, leave my daddy's job out of this..." on the radio the other day. They warrant another listen I'd say.

Couple of my must sees there Krsanyi :) Only listened to two tracks from Scalping, both excellent. Black Country New Road are terrific, seen them once. Odd but really interesting. Quite liked what I have listened to of Just Mustard, less so Jockstrap, who I think have some connection with Black Country New Road. Not yet listened to Grimm Grimm or Pig. With you on the others though, tried to watch Idles set at 6music Festival, had to turn off after 10mns. Bodega not for me either. Having said all that I think Gaelynn Lee was on my avoid list two years ago and her set turned out to be one of the best of the weekend so who knows.
