  • Local bands you don't hate

    Vegas hasn't produced many big time bands, but the Killers aren't awful.

    Here is a recent release.

    "Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

    Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

    By, "not awful", I assume you mean, "made one of the best albums of the 2000's". And yes, I agree with you.

      I don't follow local SLC bands anymore. There was one 15 years or so ago who was decent. Clover I think was their name. Had a pretty good album around 1996...opened once for the Ocean Blue at Club Omni (or was it The Edge?). Good times.

        Here is a band trying to break out of the local area. I'm not a big fan of jamband, but it will be interesting to watch.

        The Seed.

        It doesn't completely suck.

          There's a local artist named Cody Rigby. I went to high school with him, and was even friends with him. I would've never guessed he'd turn out to be a decent "indie folk" artist.

            I remember Clover - saw them a couple times. A guy I went to HS with was in a band called The Obvious. At one point they moved to LA to try and "make it" but I don't think it ever happened.

              Clover was rad. If anyone can find me the MP3 of Mirror Lake, that would be even more rad.

                  Local Utah bands:

                  Osmonds
                  The Jets
                  The Used
                  Neon Trees
                  Imagine Dragons

                  That's all I can think of

                  Edit: These are just ones I can think of off the top of my head, I don't particularly like any of them, except maybe the Trees...
