Default Apathetic towards music

Basically, im in somewhat of a slump. I really can't get into any bands/artist anymore. I can listen to stuff and be all its good, and but theres just this kind of..neh feeling when I listen to it, and lack of..love? towards the actual music. I can't really enjoy it much anymore, and i've desperatly been checking into alot of things (mainly with the help of big3, and hookers) but nothing really gets me, like *doesn't know how to word this and probaly sounds like a moron right now*. Reccomend me bands/artists i've looked around and checked into alot of things, along with the help of hookers and big3 (ill list the stuff down below). So yeahh, I don't really care what genre it belongs to I just need something.



The Weakerthans
The Shins
Ok Go
Super Furry Animals
Flaming Lips
Stereolab
Belle and Sebastian
John Butler Trio
Aphex Twins
Beck
My Bloody Valentine
Jack Johnson
Tracy Chapman
Mercury Rev
Dresden Dolls
David Bowie
Pelican
Sonic Youth
Echo and the Bunnymen
Ambulance LTD
Explosions In The Sky
Of Montreal
The Redwalls
The Thrills
Portishead
Figurine
Sahara Hotnights
Aqualung
Kashmir
Mew
Lovedrug
She Wants Revenge


I have to let alot of these bands kind of sink in first, but thats what i've checked out so far, and i'd appreciate lots more to listen to.

Just listen to them than pick the one you like best because that's what I do.

Make sure it has that one feeling when you listen to it as well.

In case you're wondering why I'm suddenly obessed with them, I saw them live last night and they were great! Anyway, these are a bunch of really good new-ish artists you should check out...

12twelve (Jazz/House fusion type thing with some Post-Rockish influences)
Aerial (Dutch Post-Rock band)
The Changes (Chicago-based Indie Rock band)
Hot Chip (Mellow-ish Electronic)
Hypatia Lake (Noisy Shoegaze-ish Post-Rock)
I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness (Indie Rock, their EP was produced by Britt from Spoon! )
The Most Serene Republic (Indie Rock band from Canadia. They're on Arts & Crafts, so they have to be good!)
Portugal. The Man (typical Indie Rock stuff)
Rahim (Artsy Post-Punk influenced Indie Rock)
Red Sparowes (Best Post-Rock album of last year, hands down)
Rumble In Rhodos (More Indie Rock stuff, I don't really like their album all that much, but a friend of mine swears by it)
Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin (Really good Indie Pop)

And as always whenever someone asks me to recommend them something, listen to lots and lots of Les Savy Fav.

30 seconds to mars - I promise you it's like nothing you've ever heard, you'll realise that you never really liked any music before you heard this anyway x
