Hello one and all!

This is my first post here and thought I'd let you guys know what music I'm in to currently and whether you had any suggestions about anything that you think I might like? Always looking for more tunage!

Loving:
The Antlers
Radiohead
Sigur Ros
Mogwai
Bon Iver
Massive Attack

Liking:
Metrononmy
Zero 7
Mew
Arcade Fire

Oh yeah and of course anything motown!

Cheers!

    - the first recommendation
      
      I have is that if you like Motown you should get on Stax. i checked them out after reading a review that said something like "if Motown took you out for dinner and kissed you goodnight on the doorstep, Stax took you to the backseat of the car before you arrived at the restaurant". basically just a bit rougher, boozier and more mischievous than motown but similarly staggering quality.

        But that Julia Holter LP is amazing isnt it? I was profoundly miffed I missed the wax of it and the only other place i've seen it is where someones stuck one on Discogs for a hundred quid ><

        it's getting repressed soon i hear. which is really great news. brilliant record. varied, clever & sensitive.
        beyond any kind of buzzword you can throw at it.
        
        maybe a bit off-topic but i think i had the same idea as still_here perhaps the OP would like to move from massive attack to something faintly related but a little more 2011

    - Get into some new genres
      
      Pantha Du Prince does minimal techno
      Eluvium does ambient
      
      Neither are really that far removed from the sort of atmospherics of sigur ros and mogwai etc.
      
      Japandroids are pretty much the only band to match Mew for fun-ness.
