770 - The Roots - The Roots are something of an anomaly, an alternative rap group. They don't move a lot of albums, but they're one of the best rap groups around.
769 - The Hot New Mexicans - A punk band that I first heard in Pierre. They were one of many bands on this countdown that I first saw at a summer music festival that was by far the most ambitious show Pierre's ever put together.
768 - Nick Cave - He'd probably rank a lot higher on other people's lists, but outside of a few really great songs ("Red Right Hand", "The Mercy Seat", etc.), I haven't really been a big fan. Still, those few songs are good enough for this slot on the list.
767 - Ani DiFranco - The queen of the 90's alternative folk universe, Ani is a legend of the Lillith Fair scene, but I've never really gotten too into her stuff.
766 - Sahara Hotnights - An all-girl indie rock rock band with a couple of solid albums to their credit.
765 - The Cardigans - An indie rock group that had a big hit with "Lovefool", though that's hardly a representation of how good they are. They regret being known for that song to this day.
764 - The Smithereens - A New Wave group with a couple of big hits and a whole lot of smaller ones.
763 - The Boy Least Likely To - A singer-songwriter with a solid track record, though he doesn't have any hits as of yet.
762 - Rites Of Spring - A legendary early-90's hardcore punk outfit that broke up after release a few solid albums.
761 - Feeder - A Brit-pop band with a couple of hits so far.
