Who should I listen to?

Question

I am pretty much sick with modern music, rock has kinda gone down the pooper. Rap and Pop and all that... dont even get me started on that pile of rubbish.

Been listening to bands like The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Led Zeppelin, uhmm some The Who, oh and HENDRIX!!!, some other random old stuff. Am having trouble finding really good stuff to listen to. Dont tell me to listen to The Smiths or The Kinks.. need some REALLY GREAT MUSIC good lyrics, good guitar, solid stuff.
