Bored of everything Ive got.

Is there a website that you can go in and put in artists you like and it gives you recommendations (not Amazon or itunes)?

Try listening to LastFM? Put in an artist and it'll generate a "Radio Station" that'll let you hear stuff with similar tags. I've latched on to stuff I'd not have considered before.

Just tried last FM, put in david ford and "discovered" Fyfe Dangerfield, and now the Guillemots, liking so far.

Not the only genre I am into so feel free to suggest anything else and Ill give it a lsisten.

Spotify also does the same. It recommends similar artists up in the top right hand corner.

Spotify, and check out the BBC 6Music playlist - there's also an ex-playlist playlist (if you see what I mean) that has about the last 3 months of 6Music's playlists. Check it out for some ideas of what you might like!

If you liked The Guillemots, then try The Airborne Toxic Event and The Gaslight Anthem, oh and Bombay Bicycle Club, my current favorites/new to me bands. Last FM is great.
