850 - The Romantics - An 80's band that had a huge hit with "What I Like About You", the band managed to have a few smaller hits to avoid the one-hit wonder status.
849 - Nazareth - An average 70's rock band that hit it big with "Hair of the Dog" and "Everybody Hurts".
848 - The Kills - An underground indie band with a few great albums. One of the many indie bands I discovered through Blender.
847 - The Minutemen - A legendary 80's punk band that I never really got that much into, but they have a handful of songs that I think are top notch.
846 - Chubby Checker - Early rock n roll superstar that had a breakthrough smash with "The Twist".
845 - Razorlight - A British band that's made a big splash in recent years, Razorlight is an up-and-coming indie band that I discovered through Paste magazine.
844 - The Gossip - A New York punk band with an incredible lead singer, the band never managed to get beyond the whole female Ramones schtick, but they've made a lot of great music over the years.
843 - The Dead Prez - A politically-charged rap group that wasn't quite as good as Public Enemy, but made their own mark nonetheless.
842 - Longwave - An early 20th century indie dance rock outfit that never broke out, but made a hell of an album or two along the way.
841 - Lupe Fiasco - One of the coolest new rappers in the industry, Lupe crossed over and enjoyed success with indie kids as well as rap fans.
