I believe you misunderstood our fine writer friend, gnr. Listening to old music is cool, but summarily discounting new music when there's a lot of really great stuff out there from smaller bands is just a stupid and rather ignorant thing to do. I totally agree that if there's any one thing that would help Billy become relevant again, it would be to understand that people (especially his fans) are becoming less and less interested in the mainstream, which is exactly what Zeitgeist was.
I listen to some fairly obscure things, but I don't really go out hunting for bands with notoriety. With that said, I can name at least two that I know of that aren't signed: Oddibe, an acoustic pop band from Dallas, and Oliver Future, a psych rock band from here in Austin...I think.
