Long comment, part deux:

I think I'd throw a Depeche Mode on the list as well. Yes, they were heavy on the synths but Personal Jesus has the grooviest groove ever (there goes that bassline fascination again. I think it comes from years of playing the tuba).

More recent music... I'll actually go with some Danish bands. Kashmir's Rocket Brothers is gorgeous. Carpark North's Transparent and Glasslike (sorry for the lack of stimulating visuals) is ridiculously catchy though the lyrics are a bit meh. Tim Christensen is in love with the old-fashioned rock sound, which I love, and he's one of my favourite singer/songwriters (Superior is his newest song, though you might want to check out Right Next to the Right One as well - only song that's ever made me cry at a live concert).

Re. David: Excellent choice of Declaration. There's so much strength in the song, but at the same times the lyrics are sort of hopefully vulnerable? I don't know if I'm explaining it very well, but it's an incredibly intriguing song, not to mention very catchy.
