I think one of the reasons I can enjoy Weezer now is because I never felt like I was completely bombarded with them back in the day like I did with those other bands. That said, I'm not really a Weezer fan, I just enjoy a few of their songs.

trans am

mouse on mars
autechre
jega

the first 3 i'm pretty much certain the last 2 just seem appropriate.
You're right about Trans Am, Mouse On Mars and Autechre, but I've never listened to Add N to (X) and never even heard of Jega. Sounds like I should probably check both of them out though.

Janszoon LOVES this band
Haha. Believe it or not there was actually a time that I did like 311, briefly. My brother bought Music when it came out and I listened to a bit here and there and enjoyed it. At the time I liked it because it reminded me of a band I loved, Rise Robots Rise. But I lost interest in 311 pretty quickly. Then they got popular and I started hearing them a lot, which made me start to get really sick of them. Then I had a roommate who was obsessed with them and listened to them every fucking day and I grew to hate them.
