I have been listening to alot of stuff this week and forgot how good a few of these bands were and I needed to share them with you. Enjoy!

American Football (http://www.polyvinylrecords.com) - This band is an old favorite, even though the band has broken up, you can still find their albums floating around somewhere. If you like these guys, I would also check out Owen and Cap'n Jazz.

The Elected (http://www.theelected.com/) - With the guitarist from Rilo Kiley and former child star of shows like boy meets world and salute your shorts, Blake Sennett gets to show what he's got in the elected's Sub Pop release.

Far - Ok, if you haven't heard Far, then this is a band you definently need to check, even though they broke up in the late 90's this band paved the way for alot of the bands today. Everyone might be familiar with the lead singer Jonah's other stuff like onelinedrawing and Gratitude.

Emanuel (http://www.thisisemanuel.com) - I can't even begin to describe how great this band is. All I can say is just wait, these guys are gonna blow up.

Barter The Trigger (http://www.purevolume.com/barterthetrigger) - Even though omaha isn't known for its hardcore scene, since living here I've seen so many amazing bands that I think other people need to hear. This band carries an amazing live show that is full of energy and crowd participation. Their mp3's really don't do them justice.

I actually enjoy some of the Emanuel stuff. They would be a lot better if they would just do what they do best and have fun with the music, like "Hey Man!" and "Buy American Machines."

American Football was great.
