This is fantastic. I had been pondering posting to ask.mefi asking about some cool artists to check out in this genre - now I don't have to!
By the way, jonmc, all is not lost. The next revolution will be along shortly.

Ah, Nuggets.
I love all kindsa music, and the Nuggets box is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to garage.
Rock and Roll's gone off in all kinds of crazy directions over the years, some amazing trips and some merely wild goose chases, but ultimately it always returns to the raw basics. If someone forced me to pick two sets of music to take to a desert island it would be these three sets.
The music in those boxes is where it all keeps coming back to. And it don't get much better, ultimately.
(to all you arty types who would attempt to deny this: In school I met some ditsy bimbo who claimed out loud that Michael Stipe (whom I like a lot) was a greater artist than Elvis Presley. I was tempted to euthanize her on the spot to keep her genes from being passed on to future generations. Elvis would've agreed. So would've Michael Stipe probably)

jonmc, may I recommend checking out Rainbow Quartz? They are a fantastic up-and-coming label that specializes in garage pop/rock that more than nods in the direction of the 60's. Many of these groups wear their influences on their sleeves, and they are that much better for it. The label offers free downloads - just click on an artist.

I can't believe I got to this post so late! This is outlandish! I love it. Also, what ashbury said about Rainbow Quartz -- major Byrds style jangle there.

Obversley, you have arty twits who feel rock and roll has to be "improved" or "elevated," who regale us with conteptuos self-indulgent wankarama.
Basically, after the last great blasts of punk, hip-hop & grunge, the businessman and the art-farts took over. They thought they were fighting eachother, but what they both killed was the art of the unapologetic 3-minute rock and roll single. bastards.
But with this I can remember when.
Thanks, sarge.
