Clearly AN needs one of these threads because these are certainly one of the best genres of music
I’m personally loving two door cinema club, artic monkeys, the kooks, alt j, sticky fingers, and san cisco AT THE MOMENT –these varies greatly
What bands, artists do you guys listen to/recommend?

At the moment, my favourite bands/ artists are two door cinema club, the wombats, san cisco, atoms for peace, coldplay, big scary, the vaccines, the xx, and Radiohead.... Always Radiohead

In Rainbows is quite accessible! Depends on what you've listened to previously - Radiohead has covered a lot of genres with the passing of time.

If you're more into straight rock, then The Bends is good (this is where I started).. If you're not feeling it after the first listen, wait a week and try again, or sample a different album  The brilliance and beauty can take a while to set in.. but then one day BAM; you're mind melts!

Any Noel Gallagher fans? Everything he does is gold, even his interview antics. I also think this of Jack White, Dave Grohl and Thom Yorke (Atoms For Peace!!!).

I'm saving Radiohead till later, for now. Though by the time I listen to them, they'll probably be so hyped up in my mind that I'd almost surely be disappointed by anything...

So, bands. The Who, Beatles, Pink Floyd, Kinks, King Crimson, Cream, Bowie... You get the picture. Getting more into Prog recently.
