   The Album Leaf
   Iron and WIne
   Rosie Thomas

   This is the right answer! Well my right answer anyways, These three bands have so much going on, I could go on and write novels about each one and why they are so great, but I’ll save your eyes and my fingers from that strain. End of Story!

   1.Soundgarden (looking California, but feeling Minnesota, oh yeah)

   2. Nirvana (Nevermind changed EVERYTHING! It also brought an unfortunate end to my love for hair metal as I realized how silly I was for wanting happy, fun music in my life.)

   3. The Album Leaf (Nothing mellows me out better after thrashing to Soundgarden and Nirvana than some Album Leaf)

    this is tough….

    1. sunny day real estate
    2. postal service
    3. iron and wine

    although, in my head, rosie thomas, , the shins, mudhoney, and jeremy enigk’s first solo disc are all in a big gang fight with the three mentioned above….

    In this instance, since we’re talking about “all time” favorites, nostalgia wins:

    1. Sebadoh
    2. Eric’s Trip
    3. SDRE/Jeremy Enigk

    Speaking of old school nostalgia, I miss hometown heroes Big Chief. From their more recent releases, I’m really enjoying Wolf Parade/Handsome Furs and Rosie Thomas.

    Do I get extra points for having owned an original Sub Pop single of the month “Loser” t-shirt back in the day?

    this is great guys. i love seeing this diverse taste in good music. i want to give a hint and lay down this guideline: if nobody matches my top three by sunday at noon, then the prize goes to whoever is the closest.
    but here’s the hint:
    Someone has actually guessed my three favorites, but doesn’t have them in the right order (and actually, i can’t even tell what order they’re really in, because he didn’t number them).
