The list
There has been a surprising amount of buzz surrounding the Leafblower's top 40 bands in America today. For the record, here are my picks, in no particular order.
1. Talking Heads - They count in my book because they finally released
"The Name of This Band" on CD in 2004.
2. Modest Mouse
3. Ted Leo/Rx
4. Handsome Boy Modeling School
5. The Postal Service
6. !!!
7. OutKast
8. Fiery Furnaces
9. The Black Keys
10. Q and not U.

I can't believe it took about 20 years to get "The Name Of This Band..." out on CD. The bonus tracks may have made it well worth the wait though. This is definitely one of my favorite releases of the year.

I agree! I love the Postal Service so much that I named my blog after it:
DC Sleeps Alone tonight!
