wow, I forgot alot, but I'm just going on whats In my CD case right now
and I'll just throw these out into the mix
Ravi Shankar, Moxy Fruvous, Aphex Twin, Blue Man Group, Massive Attack.
Moxy Früvous? Hardly ever see any other fans of Moxy out there.. I personally don't own any of their CDs or anything, but I do listen to some of their songs. They're a great band. It's really a shame that they're still on haitus, though.. Wonder if they'll ever be getting back together again.
Hey, if you're interested, I know of another band that's really similar to them. Arrogant Worms is another Canadian band of a very similar style to Moxy Früvous. You might want to check them out.
Blue Man Group's awesome, too. I went and saw one of their concerts once in Chicago.. Really fun to see live. I'm a percussionist myself, so I appreciate their music a lot, along with the stage performance.
I grew up In canada around the same area that moxy fruvous is from and I have there very first EP/tape (the one with the pseudo-rap of green eggs and ham) good stuff, and I've seen BMG twice, great show.
thanks for the recomendation of arrogant worms I'll see if I can find some.

My tastes in music have changed substantially in the past year. I'm convinced it's from my longer hair tugging on some section of my brain. :-) Anyway, my tastes have migrated from pop music toward more alt-rock stuff (albeit with a pop feel), such as:
Pete Yorn
Oasis
Goo Goo Dolls
Jet
Bleu
Travis
And for my leftover pop sensibilities...
Matchbox Twenty
Robbie Williams
...and for Latin music:
Bacilos
Cabas
Juanes
Gustavo Cerati
Ekhymosis
Alejandro Sanz
