At first the numbers didn't mean anything but then I thought about how I subconsciously ranked them anyway so then I ranked them more and here they are now outrageously ranked:

1. THEESatisfaction - awE naturalE (Sub Pop Records) Duh, everyone's favorite, but two words: SASS & CLASS. (avant-hop/neo-rap)
2. wimps - Demo Super fun, catchy punk jams from members of Butts, Meth Teeth, the Intelligence. Can't wait to hear the full-length next month! (PUNK)
3. Tiny Knives - Static A raw and unyielding punk rock force from a couple of Portland-based riot ladies. (PUNK)
4. Black Hat - Spectral Disorder EP (Debacle Records) Drifting into space, getting lost there for a minute. (industrial noise/ambient)
5. Evening Meetings - Forgotten In Seconds 7" Ex-members of the A-Frames making ramshackle noisy punk, appeasing fans of the Fall and other good taste havers.(PUNK)
6. Criminal Code- Hollowed 7" (Deranged Records) This Tacoma band is totally representing my gritty 'lil birth city. Their Midwestern sound churns and sprawls in a powerful punk miasma. (PUNK)
7. Erik Blood - Touch Screens An erotic storm of danceable beats and bedroom-gaze seduction. (shoegaze/electronic)
8. Big Eyes - Back From the Moon 7" (Grave Mistake Records) New York transplants Big Eyes are a welcome addition to Seattle's punk scene, and create uber-catchy power poppy punk anthems. (PUNK)
9. Special Explosion - EP Eastside teens giving everyone Insta Peter Pan Syndrome with clean tones and irresistably big choruses. (indie rock)
10. Silicon Girls - Rana I believe I have described this band as "artastically post-everything" before. This is the sound of youth explored-- at the beach, or beached, but always with carefree abandon. (math/indie rock/surf)
11. Chastity Belt - Dude Having recently relocated from Walla Walla, Washington, Chastity Belt's songs are humorous ("you look like a barbie doll/you look like Steven Seagal") SASSY, and fun! (garage rock)
12. La Luz - Damp Face EP This new all-girl band fronted by HER DJ/ex-Curious Mystery member Shana Cleveland is rippling with easy charm, the red lipstick on the seal of a kiss-off. (garage pop)
13. King Tears Bat Trip - King Tears Bat Trip 7" Mind meld. Mind melt. Mind rush. Mind crush. Mind squee. (freak jazz/outsider trance)
14. Posse - Posse Posse create garage songs that are sincere, thoughtful and honest. And they're also damn good! (garage/indie rock)
15. Kithkin - Takers and Leavers EP I have an affinity for music that sounds like this (see: Wild Beasts, Vampire Weekend) because I was seventeen once. But also this EP is a jungle of drums and pervasively catchy rhythms and hooks that are not to be ignored. (jungle pop)
