    Here's a good list to satisfy your 80s crave:

    Night Riots - Young Lore, Back to Your Love, Contagious, Holsters

    Shout Out louds - Walking in your footsteps, sugar,

    Magic Man - Paris, Texas, Waves, Every Day, Tonight

    St. Lucia - All Eyes on You, Closer than this, Before the dive, elevate, wait for love

    Black Kids - Hurricane, making eyes at you, look at me, Only call me when you're crying

    BLondfire - Young heart, dear in your headlights, walking with the giants, we are one

    Fitz and the Tantrums - 6AM, out of my league, the walker

    Night Terrors of 1927 - all their songs

    The Royal concept - damn, goldrushed, tonight,cabin down below

    HAIM - Falling, the wire, forever

    Bad Suns - Salt

    Keane - Spiralling

    Bleachers - Rollercoaster, shadow, wake me, I wanna get better

    As for the strokes and shins similarities, try these:

    Broken bells(same lead singer as shins) - the high road, October, the mall and misery, the ghost inside, after the disco

    Spoon - Their new album, Do You, Knock Knock Knock, They Want My Soul, inside out, Let me be mine, new york kiss (the whole album is great)

    Graffiti6- free, diamonds and pearls, Stare into the sun, annie you save me, angels and devils, colours, stop mary,

    Interpol - Evil, All the rage back home

    The Kooks - Bad habit

    Have fun!

    I love Radiohead, the strokes and the shins!! Try Neutral Milk Hotel for Shins like stuff. Arcade Fire is kinda like Radiohead. Arctic Monkeys and band of Horses are good as well!
