Arctic Monkey

Death Cab for Cutie

I'm a big fan of Nickelback, they've got songs ranging from soft rock, country-ish and almost metal. Hollywood Undead is really good too, but if you like Adam lambert, you probably won't like them too much...

I also suggest Nightwish :) especially Amaranth - I hope I spelled that right >.<

Ooooooo! An Itunes gift card! I love getting those things! But in reality I don't really have a favorite band or type of music. Actually it's kind of funny because my Ipod on;y has songs that get stuck in my head on it (usually their alternative or pop but reguardless they all had a good beat and awesome lyrics) so I just upload the data on my card and use it when a song I have stuck in my head drives me nuts.

You could buy an audiobook - they last longer.
