    If you like Oasis then I can't recommend any albums to you on general principle. Sorry. That's some toxic rehashed lazy **** right there.

    Yea, their new one, Black Cherry isnt up to much, Im not into fuzzy electronica posturing, even if it is her amazing voice floating around on top of it. However, Felt Mountain is a much more down to earth, relaxing record.

    Meds - Placebo

    ok, I'm not sure if this is the wrong forum, so if it is, then modes feel free to move.

    Basically, I haven't found an album in about two years that has absolutely blown me away, and I'm looking for some suggestions.

    Now I know a lot of you guys would have different tastes to me, so here's some of my favourite bands/musicians:

    Beatles
    kinks
    oasis
    bellx1
    mercury rev
    Damien Rice
    Declan O Rourke
    John lennon solo stuff
    I like *some* of the artic monkey stuff
    the Killers
    Bob Dylan

    So I'd like to find a band that are in the same genre as these?

    Anyone got any suggestions?

    Thanks,
    Martin
    Going by what you're saying thereand bands/acts you list, then I'd echo a quote somebody else made that you're missing stuff by the Stones; anything from the purple patch (Beggars Banquet to Exile on Main St) is a good buy.

    For something slightly more up to date, you might chance taking a punt on Teenage Fanclub. A bit beatley, a bit byrds-y, clever songs, nice harmonies...Most folks say Bandwagonesque is their finest hour (or 46 minutes, probably) but I'm slightly more a Grand Prix man meself!

    Hot hot hot - Make up the breakdown, won't blow you away but you'll probably like it.

    Been listening to Tilly and the Wall all day and I think their great so maybe you should give em a go.

    People have already mentioned Arcade Fire..

    If you like BellX1, Mercury Rev and Damien Rice you might like Waiting Room. They're an Irish band, from Cork I think.
    Have a look at their website or MySpace before you run out and buy their album, "Catering For Headphones". There's some MP3s available. www.waitingroomfun.com

    I'd also recommend Pearl Jam. Even just try their greatest hits album, "Rearviewmirror". Or their first album, "Ten". It's all great :)
