Some that I haven't seen listed yet
Off the top of my head: Sufjan Stevens, James Blake, Explosions in the Sky, Mumford and Sons, Bon Iver, Caribou, Chiddy Bang, Wale, Titus Andronicus, Fleet Foxes, Noah and the Whale, The National, Sleigh Bells, Ratatat, The Tallest Man on Earth, We Were Promised Jetpacks, and Yeasayer
That should keep you occupied.

Mumford and Sons and Bon
Mumford and Sons and Bon
Mumford and Sons and Bon Iver, yes! I hear Bon Iver is coming out with some new stuff. Can't wait for that.
Oh, and toMagnus - I also like some Matt Waddle (Obadiah Parker) has a pretty sweet Live Album where they cover "Hey Ya" by Outkast. It was on the Finale of Scrubs I think like 4 years ago or something. The rest of the album is pretty good. You really can't go wrong with a little Pearl Jam to cleanse the eardrums every now and then either.

I found my copy from btjunkie.org. Run a search for Bon Iver and it should be on the top. It just leaked today and there weren't any ratings on it but I dowloaded fairly quickly and ran my anti-virus on it and it came out clean.

Your musical tastes sound right up my alley. Sufjan Stevens, Explosions in the Sky, Fleet Foxes, the National, and Sleigh Bells are already in my repertoire. I'm not a fan of Bon Iver (his voice drives me a little crazy), but I'll check out some of the others.

The Black Keys
The Black Keys
Check out some Black Keys, but go with their older stuff, or some live stuff. Some of their best stuff is live on Youtube:

Their latest album is a bit over produced, in my opinion.
Can't go wrong with Muse either:

Brothers was probably still overproduced, but it was still solid. This is off a mashup album with Big Boi which I loved called "The Brothers of Chico Dusty"

I'm not sure most people are physically fit enough to play like he does. Hell I start to hurt after playing drums on guitar hero for half an hour, and he probably manages more hits in one song than I do in said half hour.

1. Smith Westerns, Dye it Blonde
2. The TuneYards, WHOKILL
If you like Arcade Fire/ Black Keys type shit, you'll love this. Way more talented bands, and not as poppy. Middle schoolers aren't jamming this shit.

A new TOOL album will be coming out this year, enough said
check out Animals as Leaders also, their song CAFO is pretty awesome if you like prog metal......don't worry there are no vocals so no screaming or growling if you aren't into that, it is some of the best guitar ever though

Revolution is as good as it gets from Rise Against. Siren Song and Suffer had some good moments but doesn't have the staying power and consistency from Revolution.
But Revolution is different from both albums so it depends on your music taste

Add these to the Punk Rock section:
Add these to the Punk Rock section:
Punk Bands (or at least a sub-genre of punk) - these are mostly fairly new bands
The Menzingers
Polar Bear Club - particularly the album "Sometimes Things Just Disappear"
Gaslight Anthem - "Sink or Swim" is one of my favorite albums ever, regardless of genre
Titus Andronicus
Chuck Ragan (Hot Water Music) - His solo stuff is awesome
The Weakerthans - Every album is just plain brilliant
The Lawrence Arms (or most other chicago punk bands - alkaline trio, smoking popes, etc.)
Brand New
Heatless Bastards
I like all old punk bands, for the most part. But those are some (relatively) new bands that i apreciate.
Other Bands (non-punk) currently listening to, and also ones I have not seen listed.
Band of Horses, Broken Bells, Matt and Kim, The National, One Day as a Lion, Phoenix
I would agree with you that I prefer Rise Against's older stuff much better. For me it would go "Revolutions Per Minute" then "The Unraveling." Their new stuff sounds like Nickelback. Also, Tim is a preachy mofo. I like listening to music at shows, not to the frontman spew about how much he hates meat. If I wanted to hear some punk rocker talk for an hour, I'd go see Henry Rollin's spoken word tour.
EDIT: I also like most hipster stuff played at the neighborhood Chicago bars.
