I'm a bit of an I-Tunes freak, love to download. I've got a very eclectic music taste spanning most genres. I want some new music that will blow my mind....anything at all. Any suggestions are welcome. Britpop and 'alternative indie' I suppose you could call it are preferential. Thanks a lot. x x

All good bands, all got great songs.

Ok, how about these groups:

Frou Frou
Imogen Heap's vocals are amazing. Their album Details is very calming

Lamb
I love 2 of their songs:
Gorecki and
Gabriel

Ray Lamontagne

Emiliana Torrini

Not sure if I am on the right track but you might want to give them a listen!
Lo Fidelity All Stars done some great stuff, as did Asian Dub Foundation. Alternative indie... hmm.. I used to be into Ride, Lush, My Bl00dy Valentine (get their Loveless album!)... Chapter House had quite a good album out too in the early 90s called Whirlpool.

Seeing as you said you had eclectic tastes, then I can also recommend Overseer, Groove Armada and Daft Punk from the electronica genre.
Some of my favourites are:
The Upper Room

Gin Blossoms

Toad the Wet Sprocket

The new James Dean Bradfield solo songs are excellent
