Top 1000 Bands #550-#541

550 - Super Furry Animals - A modern rock band that's released a handful of solid albums over the past 10 years.

549 - Living Colour - A potentially great band, Living Colour only managed to squeeze out one hit, but it was a great one: "Cult Of Personality".

548 - We Are Scientists - An indie dance rock band with a bright future. They released a new album this week, so I would expect them to skyrocket pretty soon.

547 - The Capes - A punk band with a couple of solid albums so far.

546 - The Redwalls - A Detroit rock throwback in the White Stripes tradition, though they're not nearly in the same league.

545 - LCD Soundsystem - Another band that will be going up the next time I revise this list, LCD Soundsystem is at the top of the dance punk genre at the moment, releasing one of the best albums of 2007.

544 - The (International) Noise Conspiracy - A political punk group that hasn't broken through yet, but they have created a lot of great music to date.

543 - Jem - An indie singer-songwriter, Jem had a huge hit with "Come On Closer" as well as several smaller hits over the years.

542 - The Thrills - An indie rock band with a few solid albums, The Thrills recently released their critically acclaimed breakthrough album.

541 - The Supersuckers - More fun than good most of the time, the Supersuckers have still managed to create quite a few great songs in the past few decades.
