Enon vs Doves vs Black Heart Procession

Cloud Cult is still huge here and are fucking abysmal

@ AB - I only ever saw Enon at Tasty World, with Doll Farm opening. If they played 40 Watt too I'm sorry I missed it!

I'm a former college radio DJ in my 30s. Enon - High Society gets my vote, listening to that is like taking a time machine back to those days.

That Long Winters album has some very excellent power-pop on it. Constantines were great live, though I also think the album after is their best. Wasn't that Doves album pretty huge?

Long Winters album is the best thing on this list by a decent margin

which is not to say everything else sucks, it's just that When I Pretend To Fall is a classic, in my book.

next: Weakerthans, Pinback

only one I know is Kashmir which is indeed a great Danish rock album

Long Winters, followed by Weakerthans, with Pinback pretty high on the list too.

I'm tempted to listen to the ones I haven't heard, but at the moment another vote for Enon. That was actually my #1 album in the year it came out.
