I'm hoping you all noticed the new banner at the top of the screen. If you didn't, you REALLY need to pay more attention. The one up now is the second one I've made, and you can check out this one and all future ones by going to my flickr account.
Last week I got an email that pretty much opened the door to enough Under The Radar posts to last me the rest of the year. The message came from the folks at Ariel Publicity, who basically help represent dozens of artists by putting their music on their site and letting all manner of folks, from potential labels to bloggers like me to hear the music, download stuff if we so choose, and it's all actually a pretty cool setup. Ariel promotes over 80 artists from any genre humanly possible. The only common thread I've noticed so far is that it's all pretty good. I just grabbed a couple random tracks from artists that I thought I'd like, and gonna give quickie previews to you guys.
First up is KaiserCartel, a folk-rock duo whose nearest mainstream neighbors are The Pretenders, My Bloody Valentine, and a touch of Snow Patrol. Don't let the strange influences turn you off; KaiserCartel are a cheerful, hearty, emotional band, and their song "Okay" reminds me of something that could've come off the soundtrack to the movie Once (if you haven't seen it yet, rent it. It's effing brilliant). And for bonus points, if you have nothing to do this Friday afternoon and are gonna be in Philly, they'll be at the World Cafe around 1PM. Go check them out, they're something else.
Okay

Next up is Blood Red Sun, a punk rock act that takes an 80s mindset and puts it into modern rock terms. The guitars on "All At Once" are an awesome blend of 80s electronic and 00s explosiveness. On top of it all, the track is lyrically on par with early U2 and Coldplay, and as a result Blood Red Sun could be one of the bands to fill the void that hard-rock message bands like Rage Against the Machine and System of a Down left behind.

The first artist recommended to me was Tori Lewis. Tori Lewis is an R&B singer listed as being in the style of Alicia Keys and Jordin Sparks. That comparison sort of works, except Tori Lewis takes that formulaic R&B sound and adds a punk rock edge to it, with a guitar backdrop that would make "Umbrella" blush. Imagine if Avril Lavigne went back to her Let Go era style and did a collaboration with Rihanna. Except now make it awesome. As someone who doesn't particularly love R&B (I put up with it on the radio, but it's far from being on my iPod in any volume), Tori Lewis' debut Attitude might end up being one of my next few purchases.

Lastly I've got Five a.m. I think I grabbed this track because the name reminded me of Sixx AM, whom I love. A dumb reason to pick a band, but there's nothing bad about these guys. Five a.m. are the most radio-ready band out of all the ones I've mentioned so far, and I mention this in the best possible way. They've got all the hooks of 90s post-grunge pop a la Better Than Ezra and Dishwalla, and lyrically they've got the brains of some of the best soft-rockers out there (read: Matt Nathanson, Howie Day, etc.). If these four acts are any indication of what else Ariel Publicity has in their lineup, then there's even more good music waiting to break out than I realize. Suffice it to say I'm gonna have my hands full when it comes time to get back to work on the radio station.
