The Yardbirds and Cream.

That is because Coheed and Cambria have a Rush element to their vocals. Don't deny it, everybody knows that C&C often sound like Rush. If you despise Rush, then you quite possibly will hate Coheed and Cambria. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

How about the Zombies? Try them out, you may like them. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

A few years ago I was in the same predicament. I became increasingly bored with the state of modern popular music as well as much of the rock, pop and funk music from the 60's and 70's that everyone has heard ad nauseum. So-called "alt-rock" had become extremely droning and repetitive.

It was at this point that I started to explore the world of jazz(especially the 1930's-1960's). With new CD reissues coming out regularly there is a whole world of fascinating music to be discovered.

It is amazing to me that what is a truly American art form is not appreciated in the US yet is much more enthusiastically received abroad. While having in-laws from Ireland visit a few years back we were knocking back a few and I started playing some of my CD's. They were very familiar with the work of Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Thelonius Monk, Dave Brubeck, Art Blakey, Charlie Mingus, John Coltrane and many others. To most Americans, though, this brilliant music is undiscovered.

Maybe not your taste, too pop probably, but I have fallen in love with this song:
