Comment:

Never mind the names of retro rockers who stomp across our Deep Cuts playlist, although the Murder City Devils and the (International) Noise Conspiracy will both ring a very loud bell among most indie rock fans of the late '90s. (The latter's lead vocalist, Dennis Lyxzén, also fronted Refused, proving that even art-damaged punks enjoy a good garage rock song.) Much like the singles-driven '60s, the cultish cuts of our revivalist set are all about [i]the song[/i]: the saw-toothed, Strokes-like swing of "Lost My Baby," the stacked acid-tab grooves of "My Name Is Tom," the icy and sinister "Plains of Nazca," and the note-bludgeoning "A Better Way Down."
