Doc,
your taste of music might differ from mine, depending on mood and whatever, but since you're promoting independent bands I still listen to each and every song you selected - quite often a live performance produces quite different reactions than a studio recording.
Case in point starts with one of my co-workers - he's the drummer of a small independent band making some rather dark and depressive music, but the same music played live takes the audience through that depressive phase, channeling all that negativity through a cleansing process, resulting in something creative. You might like their music and check them out at
