I've listened to nothing but Radiohead for the last month. I'm getting burnt out, but I love that style. Any suggestions?
I also like Portishead and They Might be Giants. :angel:

Thanks, through that I discovered Jonny Greenwood. He's from Radiohead, but it seems like he does the trippy crap I like the most.

You mind-reader noob. :P That's what I was going to say :D :D
But seriously, pandora is the nest way to find new music. Especially if you listen to a genre that doesn't really get much radio play, or isn't very popular among your friends. I love it and it is how I learn about 90% of my music (well, atleast it was before I joined eMusic. They hardly have anything from major labels, so alot of the stuff I buy on eMusic is a "Oh, that looks good" type stuff because I have no idea what any of it is. Kind of a toss up whether it is good, but I digress)

I think his list just falls under the 'required listening to really appreciate music' category.

Dear Pandora Visitor,
We are deeply, deeply sorry to say that due to licensing constraints, we can no longer allow access to Pandora for listeners located outside of the U.S. We will continue to work diligently to realize the vision of a truly global Pandora, but for the time being we are required to restrict its use. We are very sad to have to do this, but there is no other alternative.

+1 on Bjork.
+1 anything experimental.

If you like indie music i'd check out
if your looking for radio
search pandora radio (best in the world)
The strokes
Hot hot heat
Tv on the radio (ok)
the good and the bad and the queen
Gorillaz
etc there all good
edit:
Who cares about genre, you can't just dislike a whole genre, if you do your an idiot. Unless you have no music taste theres gonna be something in every genre that you like, unless its really specific like
emo\nintendocore\w/beeboproots
heres my library check em all out
some of them are chinese punk and will have a hard time finding but throw me a line

If you like alternative rock, I hope you tought of Linkin park, three days grace and Nickelback or Seether
If you prefer softer rock, think about Coldplay! or Oasis!
There is always U2, Bon Jovi, nirvana, pink floyd, beatles, greenday, ACDC for oldies!
in harder Rock, there is System of a down, metallica!
I think you realsie that I like rock music! but I agree with saxx, you must like a bit of every kind of music!
These were pretty only some well known names! but they are musts!
there is also finger eleven, rise against!
in pop, you have Hedley, Simple plan, Avril Lavigne
I don't know much about techno, but Moby is pretty awsome! I'm sure you've heard at least 2 or 3 of his songs but you never knew the title!
If perhaps you know french, I live in Quebec, so I happen to speak both languages, but Cowboy Fringant are good in pop. In rap there is loco locass, in humour music.. He is pretty much the only one in his kind! but you must understand french a lot to be able to understand him! Even I sometimes have difficulties to understand what he is saying! But he makes me laugh so much!!! it's Francois Pérusse! But to have his lyrics, you juste have to go checkout his lyrics on the internet!
There are more bands that I know about! I also know some songs... but it's the only song from that artist that I would recommend! so if you would like more info about particular music or bands! or which songs are better just ask!!! I'll try to answer soon!

Joy Division is great, if you end up liking them I would try Interpol, too. There new stuff isn't as good but I liked the first two albums. Also, Danonthe Moon: have you seen Control? It's the movie about Ian of Joy Division. You'd probably enjoy it if you like the band.

How on earth can you knock Aphex Twin? Richard D. James is a genius. He makes his own synthesizers, rewires old ones, adds extra motors to keys and does all sorts of awesome experimental stuff. At least he makes his own music, which is more than I can say for Coldplay. You've got a lot of awesome stuff on your list, Nathan, but come on, guy, you're breakin' my balls here.
The only commercial I've ever seen that uses a coldplay song (besides Mac) was for a male-only dating service. :lol:

Dangermouse produced Beck's latest, sounds nothing like Radiohead IMO, it's a million miles better than his last album (Godrich produced), it's got a Gnarls Barkley kinna vibe to it as would be expected with DM at the helm.
