    Hey,
    I'm getting a bit bored with my current cycle of bands I'm listening to. Anyone have any recommendations.

    Bands I've been listening to a lot lately : Justice, Digitalism, Muscles, MGMT, Band of Horses, Ben Folds, Sigur Ros, Cut Copy, Hot Chip, Arcade Fire, Muse, Daft Punk, Menomena

    Bit of a mix there but I'll take any recommendations :-)

    Thanks

    Get back to the classics if your tastes are contemporary! A bit of the Jam or the Clash, maybe some smyths and the like. There is great fun to be had with the oldies I say.
    Contemporary bands though... I know nothing about them.

    Listen to some good music? (hawhaw, just kiddin)

    Create a profile on www.last.fm and just scrobble. Or add the bands you like and they create a recommended list. Go from there.
