Fun Stuff > BAND
I'm in a rut (plea for recommendations)
Kid Modernist:
--- Quote from: Mikendher ---Thanks for all of the suggestions! I've listened to everything that I hadn't already heard. The only thing so far that piqued my interest was Regina Spektor ("Fidelity" in particular is very good).
--- End quote ---
Ugh, she's exactly the same as everybody else on your list!
Like a couple of people have said, BRANCH OUT man!
onewheelwizzard:
Ramona Cordova won't be breaking too much new ground for you, but I find his work to be profoundly inspiring. Find him on Myspace.
Get some Mark Lanegan, too.
Praeserpium Machinarum:
In the same vein hopefully:

Praeserpium Machinarum:
I'd be wanting to know if some of it retains your interest?
Most of the bands is from an indiepop connoisseur I know.
He has a top ten for indiepop which may interest you:
The Lucksmiths - Where Were We?
The Clientele - Suburban Light
The Montgolfier Brothers - All My Bad Thoughts
Harper Lee - Everything's Going To Be OK
Kings of Convenience - Quiet Is The New Loud
Field Mice - Skywriting
Television Personalities - And Don't The Kids Just Love It
Another Sunny Day - London Weekend
Razorcuts - R is for ...
BMX Bandits - Down at the Hop
Also in the vein of Beirut you might want some actual east european folk ala Kocani Orkestar or perhaps DeVotchKa.
