Stump'd...

I've got an iTunes gift card. And I don't know what to get with it. I've tried taking suggestions,
but here's my problem. I like certain bands. Not necessarily certain genres. So when I say I like this band, and someone says I would like that band because if it, I often don't.

My top 5 (in no particular order):

Get Set Go
Reggie & The Full Effect
Oingo Boingo
The Dresden Dolls
Ben Folds (& Ben Folds five)

See, with the exception of The Dresden Dolls and Ben Folds both being piano rock, none of those have anything to do with the other. Shoot, I don't even know what genre I'd assign to Get Set Go...

A band can't just be Rock, or Punk, or Electronic or whatever for me to like them. They have to grab my ears and swing me around the room a little. I haven't figured out just what it is about these five bands in particular that did this for me.

I just want some rad new music. Is that too much to ask?

That is all.

Start checking out some of that, or I can give you some. They are all very different, so it's not just a genre.

Crap...I thought of three good ones, now you come along with all this magical stuff. I need more than 15 bucks...

I love Alkaline Trio and have been meaning to start on Pedro The Lion and Arcade Fire...
