Center of Attention is great. I've seen them twice now and I still haven't heard Two Points for Honesty

Think this thread has just turned into "What Rock Music Do You Listen To?" But eh, that's okay. Hehe.

+1 to Sneaker Pimps. Was thinking of mentioning 6 Underground or Spin Spin Sugar but decided not to for some reason.

So for some more good bands:

White Zombie
The Doors are amazing as someone mentioned.
Tom Petty
Rogue Wave (good indie band that opened for the Shins when I saw them in 2004.. bought their CD for 8 bucks at that show)
Lou Reed's solo career..
Velvet Underground
Jefferson Airplane is always fun.
The Descendents if you like a more punk-ish sound..
Bad Religion
Dave Brubeck Quartet
CSNY
Blues Traveler

...and if you like folk/traditional artists there's:

Bob Dylan
Joan Baez
The Chieftains
The Dubliners (trad. Irish ftw!)
Arlo Guthrie tells a mad story with his songs..

Kay.. I'm having way too much fun with this thread.
