Woo thanks!
Well, stuff from Portugal, off the top of my head.
I guess right now it's all about
Buraka Som Sistema, here and internationally. They're getting bigger and bigger. They even have a song featuring M.I.A. - Sound of Kuduro, you can listen to it on their Myspace.
If you're into punk/hardcore there's
Adorno, who have great songs and are great kids.
This one is also a friend of mine. It's Folk and it's oh so Portuguese. You should give it a listen even if you don't get a word of what he's saying.
There are also
these dudes from the same label. Their songs sound like The Strokes and The White Stripes smashed into each other; I'm really not a fan, but a lot of people here seem to like them so I thought I'd mention them. They also sing in Portuguese.
And, Last but not least, I have to mention my best friend. Her name is Leonor but she goes by the name
Can't Sing For Shit. Don't let the name fool you though, she really can sing. Take a listen if you're into lo-fi folk punk and you'll love it for sure.
I'll come back with more!
