Answer 1

hmmmm....  at the very least maybe check out some mx-80, delta 5, evolution control committee...  red krayola, too...  weird stuff.  i also like me some pavement, stephen malkmus, of montreal, sun ra, gorillaz, mf doom (instrumentals are tight), shonen knife, pulp, magnetic fields, faust, and the fall...  i really could go on and on.  a cool thing you could do is go to pandora.com and enter your fave bands as stations, and the computer will select similar songs...  really cool, and some days it does such a good job i can let it play for hours without skipping a single song...

Answer 2

That is some seriously eclectic taste!

I've been doing an early post punk thing lately: Department S, Spizzenergi, Theatre of Hate, Sisters of Mercy, the Fire Engines, the Adverts, Wire.

Also worthwhile are Foals, the Walkmen, and Holy F**k. Here are some Youtube samples:

Foals, Balloons
