    I've recently been listening to some of my old industrial stuff, so unless you're about 40 and like punk / alternative there's a fair chance you've never heard

    Laibach
    Einsturzende Neubaten
    Throbbing Gristle

    Like the bottom two.

    On an industrial theme, I'm listening to Covenant right now.

    I forgot to mention LIGHTS. She's a Canadian singer with an electronic sound kinda similar to Owl City (according to some Youtube comments lol). I love her though.

    Sophie Hunger never seems to get a mention on here. She's a real talent.

    i wasn't aware of the magnetic fields ever being very popular here, that's pretty cool though, i would only have been about eight when they released 69 love songs i doubt they'd have much success with it nowadays :(

    just listened to a couple of the tracks with links the john grant song was really pretty robo2, never heard of him before but will be looking up the album :)

    i'm really into this guys music, really cool electronic stuff nobody else i know has heard of him though.

    I'm glad you like them - I think they're awesome. They need to get some decent publicity in the UK. Funny you mention Duran - they were the support act on the European leg of their recent World Tour.

    This singer called Adele, she's from London and not very well known. She's got a song called 'Someone Like You' which is pretty good I think.

    Not many people my age are aware of these artists so usually when I talk about them I get "Who?"
