Who is the best artist right now?

[Crystal A]

Dodos are the best band to debut in 2008 by a walk.

 

[Poor]

I really want to know who people feel is the best new artist around RIGHT NOW. Nothing earlier.

 

[lloquex]

as in, best band who just debuted? in that case, i'll go with grand archives

 

[Heath R]

I'm enjoying Holy **** a lot at the mo, i think they're pretty recent.

 

[amazon dot com buyer...]

Daughtry - the guy has talent. I can't say the same for all of the other American Idol ex-contestants.

 

[NoOneGetsIt]

You're fucking kidding...I thought it was right up there with Atlas sound in sheer snoozefest...I'll give it another go tho...*incredulous*

 

[aran207]

yeah recently debuted and in recently i mean in like 1-2 years.

 

[Animangalicious]

holy **** are awesome

 

[bondito]

I would definitely say Wires On Fire. (says my friend Jesus although his real name is fantasia and he steals hubcaps) (he is very imaginary).

 

[Xinfa J]

well, in that case, i change my answer to band of horses.

 

[Gooofer]

I will go with Arctic Monkeys...good clean fun
two albums, not a single mistake
not everybodys cup of tea but their success can't be accidental

...anw, wouldn't be a post for best active musical artist right now more interasting?

 

[xxLostxxSoulxx]

Maybe not the best but I certainly like them.
Margot & The Nuclear So & So's.
Potential I indeed hear.

Band of Horses debuted back in 05. Anyway my favorite banRAB of 08 are probably Grand Archives, She & Him, Fleet Foxes and A Weather.

 

[yahoo]

heh fleet foxes, grand archives, why?, Elf Power.

 

[digimonkid_2000]

their debut lp came out in 06. i didn't even know that ep existed till just now. fuckin douche.

 

[Niamh M]

Yeasayer are pretty good...Justice, Simian Mobile Disco....um...that's about it I think...*fail*

 

[proud walker]

Also CSS are the best pop band i've heard in years.
