Looking for new stuff to check out you say. Hmmmm... Not too many spring to mind, but your love of Pink Floyd and the Beatles and even Radiohead suggests that you would probably like The Flaming Lips. Ever heard The Stone Roses' first album? It's both psychedelic and melodic. Your love of blues rock suggests you might like The Black Keys or even The White Stripes. Have you heard The Hold Steady? You might like them.
