In their new issue, in a section called “Who’s Next,” SPIN list their eight bands to watch o’er ‘08. There are surefire bets like Jay Reatard, who recently signed to Matador, and our Santogold, fresh off her Fader cover model turn. Then, the teenage Miami metal group Black Tide look pretty cool in their teenage pics, but any thoughts on their thrashy sound? Not bad. Not great. Atlanta rapper B.o.B’s up to some cool things … like his “Grip Ur Body,” featuring Amy Winehouse gripping more than her crack pipe, and his Beatles-y “Lonely People” (Check it out, Sir Paul. You can listen here.) Then come choices we have a hard time believing will actually strike a huge chord (even literally) in ‘08, unless you’re looking for a boring year.
