Hot tips for 2006

We Are Scientists.
Arctic Monkeys are an obvious choice but you cant see the good for the hype at the moment. It will soon be cool to hate them, as the singer recently commented but when will it be ok to talk about their music instead of how much fuss they are creating in the charts?
Anyway WAS are fanatstic and oh-dare I say it piss all over the strokes. Angular post punk never sounded so fresh. Its not rocket science but it sounds like that moment in the indie disco where everyone rushes to the dancefloor cos they're finally playing something good. For the whole album.
I also love Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Be Your Own Pet. One is etheral harmonypop and one is shouty fem-agressive punk. I'll let you discover which is which.
I've also heard a lot about The Automatic but they sound and look to me like a bad Test Icicles who got lost in Lost Prophets wardrobe.
