Word, Refused were brilliant when I saw them a few weeks ago. Possibly the best reunited band I've ever seen.

i can't even begin to describe how good of a vocalist dennis lyxzen is even today. completely controls the crowd.

and there is almost nothing better than hearing thousands of people go CAN I SCREAM in unison and begin dancing wildly.

I regret not getting the tickets. The one day I was in school was when they were going on sale and Paul (Raul) had the tickets but then was removed after he entered his credit card. The other time I was waiting on another friend who did not get back to me in time and we missed our opp to get tickets. Sigh.

I think I'm finally really digging Los Campesinos! but I can understand why people don't really like them. I just really like the energy and the total :parrot: that they bring to their music. What other twee-punk bands should I check out?

Tiger Trap. Only had one year together, one album, but it's one of the best things ever.

And Black Tambourine, though it's not really punk, more like JAMC-style noise-pop, but it's just about as awesomeness energetic and frantic as twee gets.

Some underrated albums I think everyone should hear from 2010-2012

Daughn Gibson - All Hell (Indie Electronic)
Kind of sounds like what would happen if Johnny Cash had grew up on the Magnetic Fields
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWlYnd02mj4

Father Murphy - Anyway Your Children Will Deny It (Neo-Psychedelia)
Michael Gira and Jamie Stewart both have praised this band and for good reason. They go from whispered psychedelic ballads to apocalyptic avant-folk
http://grooveshark.com/#!/s/In+Praise+O ... 7Mcx?src=5

Jacaszek - Glimmer (Electroacoustic/Ambient)
This is the album of the decade to get snowed in with and having nothing better to do than drink tea and look out the window.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZbfAENlyos

Nails - Unsilent Death (Powerviolence/Grindcore)
Very intense grindcore but with a noticeable groove and a tightness that distinguishes itself from the fast, sloppy nature of usual grindcore.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6bx-Uhby7g

New Villager - New Villager (Indie Electronic/Art Pop)
TV on the Radio-esque art pop that is a bit less weird than TVotR and has a noticeable r&b influence
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hO4kllpegGc

Planningtorock - W (Art Pop)
This lady's music is like Lady Gaga's fashion sense. I don't believe Gaga when she wears a meat dress but if Planningtorock did that I would believe her.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWO9LweKzV8

Pop. 1280 - The Horror (Noise Rock)
Kind of standard noise rock but holy shit do they do it well. Imagine a slasher b-movie scored by Steve Albini. No frills.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMBDrQWIi_s

Trap Them - Darker Handcraft (Hardcore Punk/Crust Punk)
A more crusty version of Converge. That's all you really need to know.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HvX53CfeOk

This could be their next album title.

The other bands in their immediate circle - namely Johnny Foreigner, Sky Larkin, and Slow Club - are worth checking out. Also, to really get the most out of Los Campesinos! at this point in their career, its probably a good idea to check out their direct influences (The Housemartins, The Beautiful South, Parenthetical Girls, The Magnetic Fields and its spinoff bands) to an extent.

All four albums Los Campesinos! have put out are totally worth your time, and they've progressed in songwriting, instrumentation and general production over the years in a satisfying way.
