'Orange' by Jon Spencer Blues Explosion: "Play the blues, punk!"
'From Her to Eternity' by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
anything by The White Stripes

Indeed. I started listening to Oberst in the Summer of 2000, shortly after the release of 'Fevers and Mirrors'. Don't despair, although your preferences are derivative, they track quality, and that is rare.
BTW, NPR has a streaming concert of Bright Eyes in their archives right now, and it's quite good.
Oh, Starrman, try 'Castaways and Cutouts' by the Decemberists.

The Idiot - Iggy Pop
Lust for Life - Iggy Pop
Dirty - Sonic Youth
anything by DJ Krush
Honey's Dead - Jesus and Mary Chain
(I'm) Stranded - The Saints
Shin-Sekai and Real are my faves, but they contrast with Candle Chant (off Zen) which is brilliant.

Oooooh my special tip: A cd called "Hits aus 25 Jahren Ratiopharm". It's ummmmm.... intewresting. I'll be surprised if you can find it at all 😉
