I found another couple:

If you like Lou Reed, and the Velvet Underground, check out The Strokes. The singer sounds like Lou Reed speaking through a speak and spell and the music actually sounds like the Buzzsaw guitar style of VU.

If you like Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd, check out Juliana Theory.

Case in point....doesn't the song "Stranger" sound just a LITTLE (sarcasm) familiar.....

What Social D song does it remind you of? I'm not a Social D fan at all, but I really like Sixer. I'm curious to hear what song it reminds you of.

Reviewing my last comment, I was a bit harsh...but oh well.

Check out the song "Sometimes I Do" off of Somewhere Between Heaven And Hell.

Well I listened to it and I can hear the similarity but nothing that he should sue over. If you actually give them a chance you might really like them. You can download some MP3s from their official site below.

If you enjoy Faith No More (circa Real Thing) you might want to check out Lost Prophets....there are similarities...

Some british music mag said they anxiously await Lost Prophet's next album that it should be "their Angel Dust".
