“When I got the music…

…I got a place to go” – From “Radio” by Rancid

This is a page of music links and we want it to be the best. Please suggest other websites to the Young Adult Librarian on your next visit to the library. I have my favorite bands – old school groups like Clash, Gang of 4, Rancid, Frank Black, Rage Against the Machine – but I try to listen to new music, too. Some of my current favorites include Arcade Fire, The Wavves, Best Coast, The Thermals, Immortal Technique, Saul Williams, Jay Reatard(ON A PERSONAL NOTE: Rest In Peace JAY!! I am so sad about your passing!), Battles, Girl Talk…and many others. I’m sure you have your favorites, too. But listen to one new band every month for all of your life!
