I've been listening to Jenny Lewis (of Rilo Kiley fame and the gorgeousest redhead in the world) and can see similarities there too.
I'm sure a lot of you have heard of her but for those who haven't, her Acid Tongue album this year was one of my highlights.

I really got into Godspeed you Black Emperor after hearing Sigur Ros. They have a couple of spin off bands: Silver Mt Zion Memorial Orchestra and the Tra la la band too.

Another local Brighton band that are very highly rated. Supported the Whip recently along with an Aussie band, Pnau, that really rocked. Unfortunately in the studio they sound a bit wimpish.

There's some really good stuff on here. I love finding out about new bands.
How about Band of Horses with No-one's gonna love you. Bit like Flaming Lips which can't be a bad thing.

Another really good band.
Asobi Seksu. They're American with a Japanese female lead singer. Recently supported Ladytron on tour. They were in Brighton the same night as the Nick Cave gig and I double booked!! Grr....
Very shoegazer guitars with a kind of Cocteau Twins singing style. Very...
I'm absolutely smitten too. Kind of Beth Orton, Sinead, Joanna Newsom. She's got more sensuality and soul in her little finger than 8 series of X factor.
I'm glad you like!
Now this is a band that the Merry Prankster and I really really rave about.
Cambodia's premier psychedelic rock band today - Dengue Fever.
Seriously, if you get into one band for 2009, please let it be this one. They ROCK!!
