Im into 'older' music mostly, my top 10 bands would probably be something like

The Rolling Stones
Allman Brothers Band
Pink Floyd
Led Zeppelin
Dire Straits
Jimi Hendrix Experience
ACDC
Cream
Jethro Tull
Rush

(+ all the work the bandmembers did solo so that covers Clapton, Knopfler, etc)

and I very much like blues (BB Kings earlier stuff, John Mayall, you get the idea).

ANYWAY, the deal is, I wanna get into some newer music (mostly for the chicks, heh). Ive recently started listening to Muse and Oasis (bought discographies) - Oasis sorta failed at impressing me cause they sounded incredibly generic and dull, but Muse kinda got me hooked.

ANYWHOOOoo, recommend me some 'new' talented musicians (if you mention people like Rob Thomas I will e-stab you) and bands that I can give a shot. Mostly rock (the progressive variety) and I will consider blues if its incredibly talented (dont want 20 year olds ripping off good musicians claiming it as their own ****) and would love some jazz.

Oh, and Tool is also out of the question. I hate those ****s.

Go.
