It isn't that I like bands who are more underground than others. It isn't that I want limited financial success for artists I enjoy. It's about jocking, a term I learned recently that describes the overwhelming hype that, if put in the hands of certain people--and the higher that number of certain people, the higher the chance of jocking--can be shoved in my face. Or yours. I want to enjoy my music in peace. If I hear a Katy Perry song on the radio and like it, I have to accept that she is hyper famous and that I must enjoy that song with everyone who has cable and listens to Top 40 even a little bit. She is the New York City to Buke and Gass' Athens, Georgia: one huge, one small. So, with my admonition that you enjoy this music at your own pace, or hate it completely (either option is fine by me), here are some songs from last year that I like very much.
