Your criteria's pretty hard to meet, but I'll throw some bands out there for you to sample (some I like, some just so-so and none really are my favorites):
Hoodoo Gurus
Soup Dragons
The Farm
Longpigs
Stereo MCs

They're somewhat along the lines of your criteria...loosely...but as I said, "Smashing Pumpkins only more psychedelic" is kind of a tough one.

Unless you count the Monkees track "Daily Nightly"' 😉

Well, they were pretty good considering your personal taste. Fleet Foxes is now one of my favourite records of these past few years and there are a couple off odd tracks from some of the others you mentioned which have entered the rotation on my mp3 player, but I still haven't found anything majorly compelling yet.

Thanks..

Definitely The Mars Volta... Frances The Mute needs more time to grow but is far more satisfying...

Thanks for that guys.

I do have a few of the albums mentioned but am working my way through the other suggestions. I've heard a couple of great tracks from Arcade Fire and just got Funeral and Neon Bible so we'll see how that goes..

Cheers.

I'm not that well-versed in 2000 music however, you may find De-loused in the Commatorium by the Mars Volta satisfying, as the production on a number of the tracks is very psychedelic.

Seem to have exhausted the majority of popular music of the last 60 years and struggle to find anything new to get into..

I like some of the tripped out production on some of the stuff by "Animal Collective", "High Places" etc but the tunes are pretty.. well tuneless

Anyone recommend anything new? Or something similar to maybe Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream but.. with more psychadelic production?
