We’re at some sort of 2010 halfway point, so NME’s unleashed their annual 50 Best New Bands list. 2010’s crop includes a few bands that aren’t especially new to this year (Trash Talk, Zola Jesus, the Drums, the cat lovers at the top spot, etc.) along with a bunch who are/sort of are. My favorites of the top 50: Wild Nothing, Perfume Genius, jj, the aforementioned Trash Talk and Zola Jesus. You’ll recognize plenty of other familiar names. I’m sure you’ll also recognize gaps:

Cool shit kato. I love their format (one guitar, one shrieking hottie, electronic bass and drums) and the subtle touches they add to their messy, loopy brand of... dance alterna-hard-rock?

Watch for the shriek:
