MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
doesnt need to be too current, i hear sweet f-a new music living in madrid aside from amy macdonald.
i like kings of leon, radiohead, black keys, bowie, led z....
New Bat for Lashes album is supposed to be good.
If you're not too offended by electro - then try the Ladyhawke album (I know some people who really really don't like it' but i think it's ace)
Doves? new album out
Pj Harvey?

If you're into whiny-wailey sort of stuff
I listened once then pressed delete
fontmoss, you need to get onto Last.fm or something similar. Type in the name of a favourite band and it'll recommend similar ones. Or there are internet radio stations out there like Resonance and WFMU that play a wide range of stuff.
if you like radiohead and the suchlike then you will love anything by Marillion from the past few years. "Happiness is the road" is their latest and its brilliant
just bought the cd of "on the beach" by neil young. had it on vinyl for many years, one of his best
The new Doves album is out today. Thats an obvious one. I'm off out to get it shortly. Then buy all the other Doves albums. All genius!
little man tate or either album by the Rifles
got hold of ladyhawke last year (in my last decent music raid) and love it, great album. havent listened to doves in a while or little man tate
ill check out the others too, im not a fan of the genius bar/recommendations thingies. snobbery or fear im not sure but i like to ask folk what they think-always brings up wider/stranger associations 😀
Death by sexy or Peace, Love, Death Metal, both by Eagles of death metal. Fantastic!
As per Mr Agreeable's suggestion, give Last.fm a go.
Recommendations-wise, have a look for tunes by Y'All Is Fantasy Island and Joe Gideon & The Shark.
Last.fm is great (I seem to recall there is even a STW group??)
Uplink, he listed one of his favourites as Radiohead.....
M Ward's new album Hold Time is great.
Metric, Doves, Sunny Day Sets Fire, Stars, The Stills, The Shins, Black Mountain, Wolf Parade, Howling Bells, School of Seven Bells, The Acorn, The Dears, Death Cab For Cutie, Burial, Asobi Seksu, Fleet Foxes, Submarines, Andrew Bird, Arcade Fire, The Besnard Lakes...
I have bought albums by all the above in recent months, and enjoyed every one of them, they all come with a highly recommended label attached.

Is it true that 1 Marillion = 10 Trillion?
if you like radiohead try any of the albums by muse. Origin of symmetary or absolution are my favourites.
Joe Bonamassa - ace guitarist.
If you like radiohead,you'll hate muse...or is it just me? Try Marquee Moon by Television. It's an oldie,but sounds great.
um im not a fan of muse
Wilco, Elbow, The Early Years, should be right up your street.
got wilco and elbow :), ill check out the early years tho
Over the past couple of months, I've been replacing some old tapes with new & used CDs off Amazon. Can't go wrong for £1 - £3, specially if they're going straight on your laptop.
Recently I've been enjoying (again)
Collapsed Lung - Jackpot Goalie
RHCP - Uplift Mofo Party Plan
Sneaker Pimps - Becoming X
The Goats - Tricks of the Shade
Senser - Stacked Up
If you want to hear some truly outstanding fingerstyle guitar, from deep south blues to english ballads, get Martin Simpson - 'Prodigal Son' and /or 'Righteousness and Humidity'
