Dr. Manhattan

Look at those fucking hipsters (towards the bottom). This picture makes me almost as happy as their music does. Currently my favorite unsigned band, Dr. Manhattan has been slowly making waves in the Chicago music scene for several years now. Their eponymous debut is ambitiously edgy and angsty, but deep down inside still makes you want to dance. Jam Dreams, their latest effort, builds upon their self-titled, but pushes their sound to a more eclectic and upbeat state of controlled chaos that's just a lot of fun to listen to. Check out the songs "Mailman", "Texas", and "Biscuits and Groovy" for a taste of what these fucking hipsters have to offer. Oh and just to clarify: they named their band when Watchmen was still cool (before that piece of shit Zack Snyder film).

Listen to Jam Dreams

Homemade "Mailman" music video

You should really come with me

We could wreck things with fire

We could lay down and cry

By the riot that we'll inspire
