Try listening to different genres.. experimenting with every sound your ears hear. Don't limit yourself to only what you know.

Here's some doom metal:

Answer 3

And you won't find any

Answer 4

Pink Floyd?
I bet you already know them so I'm gonna recommend some bands I'm guessing you haven't heard of

The Vines < pretty good, I actually really like them
The Kooks < if you are into British Indie rock
Modest Mouse < I love them but I could understand why someone WON'T
Placebo < one of my favorites, well because they were one of my first favorite rock bands.

and also, you can find bands as good. the way I do it (I love to expand my knowledge of music)
try http://www.musicroamer.com/
it helps you discover new music, like just type in a name of a band and it will show you a few bands of the same sound! and you can type in a genre of music, for example "Progressive Rock" and they'll list some progressive rock bands!

best wishes! hope that was what you wanted.

Answer 5

Try Porcupine Tree's Deadwing album

aside from that try out these new (2000's) albums, ranging from metal to progressive to rock

Amorphis - Skyforger
Black Clouds and Silver Linings - Dream Theater
7even Year Itch - Collective Soul
12:5 - Pain of Salvation
This Type of thinking could do us in - Chevelle
Panopticon - Isis

Give some of this a shot, you may find a gem
