White Stripes newer stuff pisses me off. Icky Thump is a bit too self indulgent for my liking.

I don't know what we mean by mainstream here... but I'll put down kasabian, radiohead and the strokes as my current faves. Even though the latter two haven't done anything in a while.

Crowded House are still a perennial favourite of mine, and make consistently good mainstream music.

Radiohead, Tool, RATM, APC, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, and that's about all.

Oh, it's enjoyable, and Rick Rubin does a great job letting rock's best modern rhythm section do their thing, but it's just so indistinctive. Michael Balzary+Chad Smith=Awsomeness incarnate.
