You shouldn't forget indiebilly sensation White Rebel Motorcycle Club, or their major influence, My Black-Eyed Wife.

Were they those drunk hillbillies that just covered My Black-Eyed Wife songs?

The Surrey Prussians - the latest Big Things from Britain, cover of N.M.E., all that jazz.  They claim never to have listened to X.T.C., but cite Franz Ferdinand, the Kaiser Chiefs, et al as major influences.  The girlfriend of the band's singer's cousin is an apprentice stylist, and has put them all on a strict diet of cabbage leaves and amphetamines to give them the appropriate emaciated, garret-dwelling "starving artist" look.  They have three guitarists, but the third guitarist will probably switch to keyboards some time soon because figuring out how to play three guitars in opposition to each other is a bit confusing - although it does help them keep that slightly panicky look which is all the rage these days.

Have you heard of Runs on Patchouli?  Phish-style jam band.  They've put out three LPs but they've really only written one song, probably because they've been too stoned to sit down and write another, so each track is just a variation of the same chord progression with different minimal lyrics.  Hippies swear by them, and apparently the acoustic guitar solo really picks up around 2:53 of the third track on their second album "No Blood for Patchouli" but I'm pretty sure the guy's strumming the same chord for the entire track.  Maybe I haven't eaten enough shrooms to appreciate the subtleties.
