    I fear for the answers you'll get by asking this.

    Good for you! You brazen person you.

    The Fleet Foxes are pretty good, I like Wendy Darling (but it's hard to find), Eisley is pretty good, cool female leads. Start with that :)

    There are also sites you can go to that will create playlists for you according to your tastes. I've found a lot of good music like that (though I listen to weirder music then the aformentioned)

    radioblog.net is one

    pandora is another

    Hope that helped :)
