Hailing from Irvine, California, the rock band has got some traction on the charts with this single, which was released in January. Plebeian that I am, I only recently heard it.

Bayside: Sick Sick Sick
Feel like some angst-filled punk/pop/alt-rock today? This band, from Queens, might be just what you're looking for. Off the album Killing Time, released in February.
Buck 65: Dang
Another unique Canadian artist. This song is off his 2007 album, Situation.
Alex Winston: Choice Notes
I believe this song has been the soundtrack of a commercial, so it might sound vaguely familiar. She introduces herself in the beginning of this video, so enjoy.
Gold Panda: Marriage
Artfully produced video, brilliant electronic track. Gold Panda is an Englishman who lives in Japan.
Frank Ocean
Here is a smooth sounding song in a growing genre some call "hipster friendly" hip hop. What do you think?

Voxhaul Broadcast: Leaving On The 5th
Every Friday deserves a dose of this band:
The Airborne Toxic Event: Sometime Around Midnight
This Los Angeles-based band has just released a new album entitled All At Once, and it is a solid effort, but I still think that the song below, off their self-titled 2008 debut album is their best. It is brimming with more hipness and yearning than any one pop song deserves.
The Desperate Bicycles
Classic English Punk.
Jonathan Jeremiah: Happiness
Here is an incredibly feel-good song from this interesting British singer/songwriter.

Glasvegas: The World Is Yours
Scottish pop-rock off this band's recently released album, EUPHORIC /// HEARTBREAK \\\.
Foster the People: Pumped Up Kicks
This song has made some noise on the charts in most English-speaking countries for this Los Angeles-based rock band. It is more or less a straightforward song, but the bass line and chorus will make you replay it again and again.
Austine: Petite Pute
Off this French artist's 2007 album, Ouh La La La.
