Already Know a few good bands? Want to know some more?

The New Pollution is where you check in to listen to something you might not have heard before. It's trying to make life easier for you. Lord knows we haven't the time to be trawling through every street press in the world, or the wealth to head over to SxSW every March, nor the desire to stay home every Friday night to watch the latest releases on Rage.

If you already know a tonne of great bands, but want to hear about a few more, come and read my ramblings or die trying.
