I just wanted to add that anyone telling me that I need to be listening to something else.... gets a no comment. If I wanted to listen to beyonce, ciara etc then I would. I didn't ask for suggestions of this kind. I asked for suggestions that would be in my vein. Thank you to all who have answered appropriately! I've gotten a lot of help actually!

That's a great list as it is - some suggestions off the top of my head: The Dears, Hawksley Workman, Tom Waits, Jorane, Malajube, Muse, Pierre Lapointe, and on a somewhat different note - Dobacaracol. (Sorry, some of those are bilingual; several years of living in Montreal will do that to you...)

The Mars Volta
Circa Survive
Coheed and Cambria
Tool
Mr.Bungle
or stuff like:
Electric 6
The Faint
Scissor Sisters
Ima Robot
Cake
If that is all too fast try

When I'm in the mood for something new I go to www.allmusic.com. They have reviews and bios for almost every artist under the sun, and it's all cross-referenced by style, genre, themes, moods, and similar artists. There's a lot of "if you like this, you might also enjoy..." links. Check it out.

you should check out panic at the disco, fall out boy, or paramore, most people label them as punk or rock, but anybody could like them.
