AHHHH!!! I cannot stand the music made today! I only listen to 90s music, esp. NIRVANA and Blind Melon! There are sooo many more awesome bands of the 90s such as Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, and Sublime, etc. but Nirvana and Blind Melon have to be my favorites by far! All I have is 90s music on my iPod and I only listen to the 90s Alternative stations on my satellite radio.\n\n:-( Sorry to say that I can't think of a band out there today similar to the awesome bands you named but I just had to say something about this question!\n\nLong live 90s music! \nR.I.P Kurt & Shannon

I recently found a band called Ka'Nal.  They are great, and I know that there is a live show available for free download on Archives.com.  They incorporate sounds from a lot of different cultures.

You could do anything from rock to raggae.  As long as you're good :) ... seems like there's a lot of diversity and good bands from all different venues are populare.

There is a band called Leaves who are very much like Coldplay. Not sure if they're still going. You could try Keane as well.

The majority of it's gone to crap, like somebody else said, go listen to some awesome indie.  I reccomend Broken Social Scene, Cursive, Switchblade Symphony, Flaming Lips, and Nightmare of You for some great indie artists that the crap-listeners had never heard of.
