Alright... I've been expanding my horizons regarding musical interests.

Lately, playing the same songs on my pink ipod whilst slaving over reports at work just isn't keeping me from the boredom, not to mention, the overly obnoxious squawks coming from a few of the women in the other offices.

Therefore, I need some new material. Please Advise.

Any and all musical influences and genres are appreciated.

Jamie Woon has been a wonderful discovery for me. His whole album Mirrorwriting is great.

Just doesn't seem like a band the online Phil persona that I know would listen to.

Or Limp Bizkit, or several others you've listed in the past. Just interesting is all.

To be fair, I really am not a fan of Limp Bizkit. I do think their guitarist, Wes Borland, is amazing. But Fred Durst ruins everything else.

As for Trail of Dead, I love those guys.

The music I most listen to, according to Last.fm, is things like The Replacements, Aphex Twin, Thrice, Alice in Chains, Nine Inch Nails, Radiohead, etc.

But I also really like some folk and acoustic stuff.
