So I got a gift certificate for $20 at itunes and I figured I should use it to check out some artists that I've heard good things about and not yet checked out. Here's a list of the bands I'm interested in checking out. Can anyone recommend the tunes from these artists/albums I need to hear?

Animal Collective - Feels
Broken Social Scene - Broken Social Scene
Deerhoof - The Runners Four
lcd soundsystem
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Antony and Johnsons - i am a bird now
Boards of Canada - The Campfire Headphase
The Hold Steady - Seperation Sunday

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help.

Most importantly, don't limit yourself to those albums.

Broken Social Scene - "Almost Crimes" "Cause=Time" (You Forgot It In People"
Deerhoof - any of the first 3 tracks from Milk Man: "Milk Man", "Giga Dance", "Desaparecere"
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - "Details of the War" "Yellow Country Teeth..."
Boards of Canada - something off Geogaddi or Music Has the Right to Children, I don't know specific tracks but they are both very good albums

If you already own those albums, sorry.

I should like The Holdy Steady because they are similar to DBT and Lucero, but I can't really get into the guy just speaking the lyrics.

The Black Keys would be a fine choice.

If you download a 20 minute song does the cost stay the same?

Never heard any Black Keys either, what could you compare them to?

Thanks for all the suggestions so far. I'm going to go download a few of them. I have a feeling this gift certificate will lead to a trip to the cd store so I can spend more money. :?

Can't wait to check out the new tunes though. I'll make a list of the ones I get later.

If they're all the same, I believe the answer is "yes."

You should download Fake Palindromes from Andrew Bird's last record, if you don't already have it.
