I've been getting into hardcore/punk/avant garde/generally noisy music more and more these days, but finding new bands that aren't totally generic and bland is rough. I like bands that can find a good counter balance between chaos and hookiness. I've used the similar artist tool on Yahoo Music, but it usually gives me nothing but crap.

These are a few bands that I'm into at the moment: The Blood Brothers (Newer work more than older), Refused (The Shape of Punk to Come in particular), the Beep Beeps, Chiodos, Head Wound City, Mclusky, The Paper Chase, At The Drive In, etc., etc.

I realize the above bands have fairly disparate sounds, but I'm casting a wide net. So if you can think of a band with a similar sound, or just something that might blow me clean out of the water, I'd appreciate it.
