830 - The James Gang - Joe Walsh's biggest non-Eagles band had two huge hits before breaking up.
829 - Wire - An early punk band with a large catalog, but no breakthrough hits.
828 - The Suicide Machines - One of the many great underground punk bands that I discovered through Blender magazine. They have yet to break out, but you never know.
827 - Jawbox - One of the most popular indie bands of the 90's, Jawbox fell apart when they signed with a major label.
826 - Stellastarr - A solid indie rock band from the past 10 years, featuring soaring rock songs and deep lyrics.
825 - The Inspiral Carpets - An under-rated Brit pop band that had a few smaller hits in the 90's.
824 - The London Suede - Yeah, I didn't realize until after this list was made that the London Suede and Suede were the same band. They're both on this countdown and when I revise it, Suede will be much higher than they currently are.
823 - Breaking Benjamin - An entirely average hard rock band that keeps churning out songs that are good for about one listen, but there sure are a lot of them.
822 - Cinderella - One of the few hair bands that I like, Cinderella had a solid metal sound and decent lyrics. They also had the worst hair, but I didn't grow up with MTV, so I didn't watch the videos, so it was never important to me.
821 - Kimya Dawson - The female vocalist from the Moldy Peaches has released a couple of albums on her own. She scored the entire soundtrack to Juno, which I'm going to see this weekend, so she may go way up in the chart in the near future.
