Apparently, it's been around for a while, and I'd just never heard about it until now, but in case anyone else lives under a rock, check out www.slacker.com. It's a great, free (you can subscribe for more features, but it's not necessary) internet radio that can group not only by categories like sirius/xm radios, but also by "like artist" (e.g. if you click Blink 182, it will group a playlist of bands that sound like Blink 182), which is a neat way to find new groups you've never heard of (or just never listened to).

I'll give it a shot, but www.pandora.com has been a great site for finding similar music (music discovery, etc), but may be getting shut down in the near future due to increasing fees and crap by RIAA or whoever.

I may be revealing my general ignorance when it comes to popular music (especially lately), but has anyone heard of Anberlin before? If you haven't, I recommend looking them up on Slacker (or Pandora or whatever else have you), as they're really good.

I've heard the name in passing, but never gave them much thought specifically. I'm listening to them on Pandora and they don't seem too bad.

Sir they are good, yes. Check out Secret and Whisper, particularly "XOXOXO"
