a list of bands

Below is a list of bands I approve of after hearing at least two tracks of... it will be updated soon, and links will be added for each and every band. Bear in mind it was done a few months back, and features mostly bands on my laptop, not my CD collection. All this shall be fixed, and therefore: this may take a while...
