Lex – “Frightened Rabbit” and “Crooked Fingers”?
Cool band names and pretty obscure, at least to me anyways. I only recognize a few of the other bands.

So, you made me look thru the iPod to see if I had any stuff from any semi-obscure or weird named bands.
This is what I got:
Superchunk – Crossed Wires
Tuff Darts – All for the Love of Rock & Roll
Yaz – Only You
The Dictators – Stay With Me
Vanilla Fudge – She’s Not There
The Grip Weeds – Before I Close My Eyes
The La’s – There She Goes
The New Pornographers – Crash Years
When we come to place where the sea and the sky collide
Throw me over the edge and let my spirit glide
