There's so much new music out there, it's sometimes hard to pick who to check out. Today UK-based music news magazine NME released it's 50 Best News Bands of 2010 list -- as they describe it, "the 50 bands who've blown our minds over the past few months."
Since we're Los Angeles, a good number of local bands are given props, including Warpaint, Avi Buffalo, Best Coast, Grouplove, Zola Jesus, Foster the People, Kisses, Funeral Party, Active Child and Glasser.
Congrats to all!
