A couple that I frequently listen to are nobodyknows+ and Heartsdales. Soul'd Out did a song with Heartsdales, but I've not really sought them out.

If you can go to http://last.fm Its a great radio station player.

I put in my favorite bands, Flow, Maximum the hormone etc. And its recommend a lot of band. Most J, But some times you dont.
Example i didnt know who The pillows were and now i like some of the songs. My Ex recommended Nightmare and i put it on my list of bands for Last.fm and they come up with some nice songs.

((Sorry i dont know if its a FREE site or not i get mine with my Xbox 360, and use it on my HTC hero))

Apparently they are recording but it was put to a hault because of her baby. That's ok, I can wait. When did their latest album release?
