Kompressor, I dont know how well known this is but Ive never heard of it from anyone before. Highly enjoyable synth and anger music. Pretty funny too.

"KOMPRESSOR sound is hard and angry, good words used for song and electronic."

1. my sig- Electronic rock, sounds like an evolved linkin park.
2. Neutral Milk Hotel- Good indie music, very original.

Oh, and edit to add a few I found on the first page- Indexcase (Great live), Frank Black, and Apex Theory, who were on the verge of hitting it big with their last album. I saw them with Linkin Park and I must say that their performance was better. Oh, And Hed Pe's Broke album is worth a look.

I'd like to add the band Eleven to this list. Extremely underrated and underplayed. Great fucking stuff.

hmm... the only one i can think of is Bérénice. this girl from france. very popular there! great stuff but nobody know's about her here... it's english music like hilary duff or michelle branch.(i know i'm a guy and i like it.. who cares!) check it out. best song is probably "I'm proud" enjoy! let me know if you like it.

Things mentioned... -

Modest Mouse - awesome indie rock, can't recommend them enough. I'd get The Moon and Antarctica to start, i think its their best album.

The Mars Volta - torn lace summed it up... fast and loud. With some jazz fusion in there too.

The Shins - happy music, not happy lyrics, awesome nonetheless.

Mentioned in passing...

At the Drive-In - Group who broke up into The Mars Volta and Sparta, punk-prog sound

Nightwish
Gothic//operatic Rock,
musically solid, I love the guitar work, but what really sells it for me is the lead singer. I love good female singers, and IMHO, she's one of the best.


Rustcycle
Techno with guitars.
I don't really know how to classify him, but it's damn good.


Android Lust
I'm sure that somebody could tell me what catagory she fits into, but I don't know it.
I guess it's a kind of electronica, but beyond that....
anyway, to quote myself, it's damn good.

Whatever happened to NMH? I heard the lead singer went into hiding or something years ago.

Here are some great and semi popular bands, meaning you could actually find their CD's in stores

Blonde Redhead
Clinic
British Sea Power
Sigur Ros
Godspeed You Black Emperor!
Mum

HAHAHA, Kompressor is hilarious.

"Vitamins are Good" is the best.

They play a local (as in the Oklahoma/Texas area) variety of rock that i've not heard of anywhere else called. Its called "red dirt." Some of it has a bit of a country tone (occasional slide guitars), but most of is quite a bit harder. Kind of a derivation of the classic southern rock groups of the 60's and 70's (Creedence Clearwater Revival, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Jethro Tull), but without the cheesiness. They'll split your ears with a hard-rock tune, then give ya a soulful bit of country poetry.

Listen to:

Boys From Oklahoma
Carnie Man
Train to Birmingham

http://www.crosscanadianragweed.com

has anyone else heard of/listen to red dirt music?

Hell yeah! I love CCR!

For the Modust Mouse reccomenders: They're geting tons of playtime in Dallas/Fort Worth on 102.1 - the most popular "alternative" station.

THe band "Dispatch" may be more popular in other parts of the the U.S., but around here noones heard of them. They'd have to be my reccomendation.
