Ear Farm Ranks NC's 10 Best

New York-based music blog Ear Farm has just issued their ranking of the 10 bands from the Tar Heel state that "you should hear right now." Though we'll have to wait until Wednesday to find out who the folks at Ear Farm--who cite the Love Language, Bowerbirds, Annuals and the Rosebuds as favorites--chose as their top pick, spots 10 through 2 went to:

10. The Proclivities

9. Bellafea

8. Lost in the Trees

7. Black Skies

6. Schooner

5. Hammer No More the Fingers

4. The Bronzed Chorus

3. Birds of Avalon

2. Megafaun

I'm betting number one goes to someone like I Was Totally Destroying It, but wouldn't it be awesome to see Des Ark there? You can read about each band here.

UPDATE: Links to all bands' MySpaces accounts have been added, and, on second thought, the Physics of Meaning would be a totally acceptable and awesome band for numero uno. Or the Never--really, there's just a lot of deserving bands, including some already on the list.
