This is a shameless plug for Conditions, a great band I discovered this winter when Purevolume announced the top 21 unsigned bands of 2008. Conditions, an unsigned alternative/rock band, is well deserving of the aforementioned honor. I haven't heard an unsigned band whom I liked this much since discovering Red. Hopefully they will land a record deal with a big label like T&N and get some serious production behind them. Their purevolume site is chalk full of great songs. Enjoy :) If you go to listen to them, you MUST listen to Citizen. It's absolutely amazing. They remind me of a scaled back Emery: plenty of harmony and off-balance song signatures, a great vocal aesthetic and a slight edge.
