I recommend downloading last.fm if you're really looking for a good variety.  Or try myspace under the different band genres, or maybe just look on google or ask.com under punk, post-punk, or new wave.

I'll take on all three: Nirvana, Korn, Incubus, and Tool.  \nSimple enough!  Jet, Vines, Strokes are all throwback sounding bands, and will all be gone soon.

Good Charlotte is good. Alot better than most thing I've heard lately. But all in all music is getting worse.

I don’t really have a favourtite type... I listen to Backstreet Boys and to Machinehead as well. The point is to like it. My favourite is Nine Inch Nails. My former favourites were Beatles, Oasis, Junkies, Bush, Garbage, Silverchair, Natalie Imbruglia.

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

These aren't all new, but it's my list of bands you should know.\n\nAt the Drive-In (Pure brilliance, just go listen.)\nBear Vs. Shark (Good post-hardcore stuff)\nBlack Flag (One of the most prominently known punk bands)\nBlink 182 (Catchy pop-punk goodness)\nCaP'n Jazz (Awesome midwest emo. One of my favorites)\nDeath From Above 1979 (bass heavy noirish rock)\nDrive Like Jehu (is really good)\nFugazi (catchy stuff)\nGlassjaw (screamo/metal sort of deal, but with melodic features)\nGogol Bordello (a mix of punk and russian folk, really good)\nGreen Day (check out Dookie for the greatest of their work)\nHORSE the Band (awesome metal outfit. another of my favorites)\nHusker Du (Zen Arcade is one of the most amazing concept albums of all time)\nJimmy Eat World (really good pop/rock)\nKid Dynamite (amazing punk)\nLifetime (awesome punk with pop influences)\nThe Like Young (indie garage rock couple)\nMineral (epic, very melodic)\nMinus The Bear (just go listen)\nThe Movielife (awesome pop punk)\nNine Inch Nails (an amazing fusion of rock and industrial)\nNirvana (brought grunge to the mainstream)\nNOFX (watered down punk)\nRainer Maria (trio with primarly female vocals, very good)\nReel Big Fish (the definition of pop-ska)\n(if you like that check out the aquabats, goofy ska)\nRites of Spring (spearheaded the emo movement. And no, not the whiny emo you hear kids talking about today, real emo. It'll probably sound more like punk to you.)\nThe Strokes (indie pop at its finest)\nSunny Day Real Estate (amazing)\nTest Icicles (Brit noise-punk)

Judging from the bands you listed, I would give these bands a shot:\n1) Blind Melon - One of my favorite bands of all time. Excellent Musicians, Powerful Lyrics, and you can't beat Shannon Hoon.\ncheck out www.blindmelonexp.tk for sample tracks.\n\n2) Coldplay - Look for something other than their radio hits. There is more to Coldplay than meets the eye.\n\n3) Amos Lee- A singer/songwriter with undeniable passion and underrated guitar work.\n\nhope that helps!

I think that the best band around for the moment and probably for a long time is Linkin Park. Their music is uplifting and has helped many people just with the lyrics alone. They are different and not like any other band today. I know that they have helped me through some rough times in life just with their music. I had the opportunity just this last weekend to meet Mike Shinoda (the MC of LP) with his side project group Fort Minor in St. Paul, MN. He is very humble and doesn't act like any other artist out there today.

i am actually going to list band names because all of these bands have an eclectic selection. \n\n-Have you hear of the Pretenders?  They are really good.  They are actaully close to being punk rock but i love them and based on some of your other questions i would guess that you would too.\n-Also...i am sure that you like Black Sabbath and Ozzy but just incase you haven't listened to them recently or ever i suggest diary of a mad man (killer guitar- you'd love it)\n-i love the band boston....some of there stuff is big but hey you never know.\n-the kinks are good.\n-Teenage fan club is one of my favorites (kind of sounds like early George Harrison)\n-blur\n-CAKE \n-Electric Light Orchestra (ELO)\n- XTC\n\nyeah there are plenty more...but i don't want to bore you.\n\nBy the way i liked your chuck norris joke. (very funny)

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.

The killers of course.  Greenday is cool too and I like some of their songs...wait a minute...didn't you ask which greenday song everyone liked??? If you did, thanks for the best answer last time and if you didn't...well nevermind.  I'm a music person so I answer a lot of questions about music!

hmmm... Rilo Kiley is my favorite band, they are considered indie rock/pop, and their lyrics are oh so emo. You have probably heard of bright eyes, lyrically that is the opitomy of emo, Sunny Day Real Estate, Saves The Day (I suggest the accustic stuff), Sleater Kinney, Mellodrone, Desaparacedos, Tilly an The wall, Pixies, baby Shambles, Kings of Convenience, I dunno, I really don't know whatyou have on your I-pod right now so for all i know you alreadyhave all of these.
