[Pretty Little Flower]

My list is not that long, but here goes:

Garbage (I hear they have broken up again, however), Radiohead, Muse, Weezer, Travis, Pretenders (I can dream, can't I?), Killers, Pixies, Gorillaz, The Like, any band including either Tim Locke or Zac Maloy, Crowded House (sigh), Neil Finn, Morrissey (this is a fence-sitter for me based on his recent stuff, but now that I'm in with his keyboardist, I have to be up on his new stuff for the next tour)

In past years, I would have included REM, but they burned me pretty good with their last 4 or so albums.

As far as commentary on your list goes, that Yeah Yeah Yeahs album was horrible, though I still like Maps (it is in my head as I type this, in fact). Some of the other bands on your list are quite likeable, but don't fall into the no-questions-asked category for me (e.g., Kaiser Chiefs, The Bravery, Snow Patrol, Interpol).

Top of my list for impossible ones that I wish could put out another album would be Sublime.
