What are some good musical artists/bands I would like?

I'm into more alternative rock and progressive metal, but I'm open for many different types of music. I've been trying to find artists to listen to (I listen to artists, not just songs) on Pandora, and with not much success. Here are some artists I really like for you to get a feel of the music I like:

Vampire Weekend (My favorite band)

Rush

Dream Theater (My second favorite band)

The Killers

Modest Mouse

Kamelot

The Strokes

The White Stripes

And some popular bands like:

Fall Out Boy

Cobra Starship

All Time Low

And Owl City

Those are just a few bands I like. Any suggestions?

Oh and I do not like Country music

    I would suggest The All-American Rejects and Green Day. They both cover a lot of topics, and types of music. I usually think of 'Rejects as softer and Green Day as more loud, but believe me, they both switch sometimes. :3
