a couple of brooklyn bands i like
people:

start with 'urban fable 1'
girl/guy duo, sounds nothing like the white stripes. closer to the ladies i guess, if rob crow were a lady. rambling vaguely zach hill esque drums, jazzy guitar and airy poppy girl vocals.

start with 'nobody wants to be had'
these guys seem to be into a bit of everything, jazz, chamber music, prog, i don't really know how to describe this sort of thing. the song i pointed out starts with a sort of heavy repetetive riff, then moves into a strange-timed stacatto vocal harmony, before making way for some toot-toot-tooting on the sax. i guess it sounds pretty horrible written down, but coming out the speakers i rather enjoy it.
