2 odd requests:
Does anyone know who the music from the menu of GTA: London 1969 is by?
Does anyone know what the music is on the Renault ad with Thierry Henry and Animal from the Muppets?
 
Some samples of artists I like are
Coldplay / Pete Yorn
Death cab / Postal Service
Chemical Brothers / Orbital
Jamiroquai / Mint Royale
Infected Mushroom
Starflyer 59 / Muse
Jimmy Eat World / Collective Soul

Also listen to all the other rock and electronica artists.
I'm into a electronic or funk spin right now.
 
hmm well my five albums to get if my house was burning would be:

Bjork - Vespertine (pristine electronica beauty)
Cibo Matto - Viva La Women (just the coolest album ever)
Weezer - Green Album (30 mins of just great tunes)
Sigur Ros - Agetis Byertin (awesome album)
Radiohead - OK Computer (best album ever...probably)

recent artists/albums which i am impressed by:

Muse - 3 solid rock albums
coldplay - i hate to admit it, but they know a good tune
mum - this is a band i've loved from the second i heard them, the u has one of those roof things, their icelandic.
Zwan - terrible shame they only made one album.
Snow Patrol / Keane : Two new british bands which will hopefully save UK music from twatty teeny boppers.
 
sigur ros, mum - sweet someone else listens to weird shit. sigur ros rocked in concert - simply amazing.
i have a zwan shirt. they were fun in concert.
some other cool bands i've been listening to:
athlete (uk)
broken social scene
lali puna(ger)
notwist(ger)
air(fr)
death cab for cutie(us)
just jack(uk)
grand national (uk)
american analog set(us)
ben kweller (tx, us) i'm orig from texas.
minus the bear(us)
los lonely boys rocks. my bro heard them in college station. he told me I HAD to buy their cd. i did. i like.

i have plenty of british music that will "save UK music from twatty teeny boppers"
 
i saw both athelete and ben kweller live at a Mull Historical Society gig two years ago, imo athlete were pathetic, but Kweller rocked like a God - since then i've got both albums and the tylonol single. I keep bumping into the american analogue set album - is it a rock or electro album, i presume they're good by your recommendation. Air's latest is possibly one of their best personally, Mike Mills is one classy tune. ;)
 
coheed and cambria (amazing stuff, check them out)
brand new
dashboard confessional
machinae supremacy (have permission from them to use their stuff in my mod)
funeral for a frend
dj shadow
billy talent
blink, pre enema of the state
million dead (intelligent music for the brits)
also partial to the odd bit of the old classics, maiden, floyd etc
bit of rage now and then
try and keep my taste reasonably open, but emo is the way forward :)
 
Mainly punk but with substance:
Rocket from the crypt
Bad religion
hot hot heat
Pretty girls make graves

they're not electronic. they're more rock. but not hard rock. i don't think they have bass in their music. it's good tho. Know By Heart is an awesome album. get it. NOW.
