Musical boredom...recommend me some music

[PoundsandPence]

I've exhausted my music library. I'm trying to scope out some good bands I haven't heard yet, but so far, I've found nothing that grabs me very well.
I have a last.fm, but it's recommendations are really unhelpful...popular bands I've already sampled and don't like very much.
A few of my favorites are Bloc Party, Radiohead, The Strokes, Nada Surf, Modest Mouse, Franz Ferdinand, At The Drive-In, etc.

I'm not looking for a critique of my musical tastes, just any recommendations from anyone who knows of or listens to any bands that they think I may enjoy. Thanks.

Pixies, Heatmiser, and everyone should listen to a bit more Beatles. Get Magical Mystery Tour.

Hold up,

I know a band that you will LOVE. Guided By Voices are huge influences and are responsible for a lot bands that you like, such as the Strokes, Nada Surf, and Modest Mouse. Get Human Amusement at Hourly Rates, and get ready to listen to your new favorite band.

I think a clip of them on Famil Fued was in the Someday - Strokes music video.

everyone should listen to more Beatles get The White Album there is bound to be at least 10 songs you like on it

[bleep_bloop]

actually i got the white album and had to burn it because it was so terrible

Wow... Not even Helter Skelter, Why Don't We Do it in the Road, Blackbird, Back in the U.S.S.R, Birthday, Ob-la-di Ob-la-da, Glass Onion, or Julia?

You sir, must not have a soul if you don't like any of these/all of these songs. I pity you.

[Kayetan]

Yeah, I definitely don't feel bad about not liking the Beatles at all.

[_Mote_]

offering "WDWDIITR" as an example of one of the great tracks on the white album is very strange to me

How can you not like that song?

"Why don' we do iiiiiit in the road?!?"
One of Paul's best songs.

[Rabbi]

The Format (dog problems)
Spoon (gimme fiction)
Lazlo Bane (all the time in the world)
Yo La Tengo (I am not afraid of you and I will beat your ***)
The Zutons (Tired of Hanging Around)
Sleater-Kinney (One Beat)
OK Go (Oh No)

Theres quite a few which I think you'll enjoy. Everything in parenthasese are album titles. Keep searching, there are always great new bands.

[Rabbi]

Yeah, I definitely don't feel bad about not liking the Beatles at all.

The Beatles are like tooo good for people to be allowed to listen.

Cause I used to have them on my iPod and I killed the greatness of many of their great songs quickly by playing them over and over.

People should just KNOW how insanly amazing they are and only listen on occasion. Cause then you over-do it if its on all the time.

[bleep_bloop]

How can you not like that song?

"Why don' we do iiiiiit in the road?!?"
One of Paul's best songs.

dude, all the good beatles are already dead.

and may i suggest some grandaddy for the ts

[Rabbi]

I LOL'd at that.

Death From Above 1979 - You're A Woman I'm A Machine

Kind of like a mix between Bloc Party and The Killers. They are 10x better than The Killers though.

Check out Porcupine Tree if you want a band similar to Radiohead. Also check out Shpongle if you are more into Radiohead's electronic side...
