And ONE ONLY, that is probably NOT VERY WIDELY KNOWN (i.e. not Radiohead or The Horrors or some shit), but you think deserve a lot more attention, which would you choose? Mine would be:

DEAR AND THE HEADLIGHTS

And here's why:
Incredibly passionate vocals, great lyrics, often compared to Okkervil River but IMO they're a lot stronger, there are quiter and slower songs in the vein on Okkervil's ones but they're generally a lot more interesting, and their poppier songs are the catchiest, most earnest and emotive songs I've heard in ages. CHECK THEM OUT.

Your go, I want to be intrigued please DiS.
