I only know HTM, Finch and BOC, and am not a fan of any of them, so no vote

A close call between Happy The Man and Hands, I feel like going with Hands.

Categories strain, crack and sometimes break, under their burden - step out of the space provided.

I haven't heard of half of those bands, but of those I have heard I probably enjoy HTM the most. It's not exactly mind blowing but there are some good ideas there and they're obviously very good musicians.

Happy the Man is the sure bet here, but I'll give it to Finch as they're still at it, in whatever form, and on the road (they just played L.A.).

My vote as well but man for my tastes this is a really weak list. If Epidaurus was included as he was thinking of it would have been my pick for sure.
