The accuracy of this list! For me, there would be a lot of The Hood Internet (who apparently aren't on Spotify, gotta dig up on my old external hard drive I guess).

Great article. I was in college during this time so this is definitely a time capsule of sorts for me. Also, justice for Hot Hot Heat!

This article makes me want to go find my long misplaced iPods. Sondre Lerche - Two Way Monologue would definitely be my addition to this mix.

The one song I always think of from that era is a track I got from a friend who knew this musician who sat in as bass/vocals a vanity track for some Trust Fund Kid in New York. The name of the song was Toss My Salad, and it was a rift on exactly what you think and it was hilarious. It was also a well produced song but never got released. We always assumed the rich kid just wanted to sleep with my friend’s friend, who was smoking hot and came up with the whole thing as a ruse. Dang, I might need to dig through some old hard drives this weekend....

Gah. Dictation mistakes and no edit button drives me nuts.
