I'm in pretty much exactly the same boat. The only current
underground rock I really get excited about:
1) Anything by Brother JT (sometimes plays w/Vibrolux)
2) That last album by Royal Trux was excellent (_Veterans of
Disorder_; generally, they've been slidin' pretty hard, though).
Jeez, a list of two; can't think of anything else right now. I blame
it on Emo!
