Ok so I need some new music to listen to. Lately i've been really liking The Shins, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, MGMT  and The Arcade Fire. So if NS could recommend me something like that. Also, I really like the song in the Hot Lunch teaser so if anyone knows that song or similar music to it that would be great. Thanks.

^ the only reason I started listening to electrovamp is because a buddy of mine showed me that video and I thought the girls in it were fucking hot. My friends all make fun of my music but you know what, I dont care
