Undiscovered MySpace Musicians That Rock The Internet
Most of the artists on MySpace suck. MySpace is full of mediocre charlatan's posing as musicians looking to push onto you their latest and most pathetic "mix tape". But, in amongst all of this mediocrity are some real hidden gems. These hidden gems are actually better than most of the artists in the mainstream right now, because they are real artists, producing real music, expressing real emotions and real passions about real life. Over the last few months, I have discovered only a few of these gems, and so I present 10 of those undiscovered greats of internet music. Starting with one young man who is most definetely going to rock the world, From A Whim.
