OK, Pretty Little Flamer, if you really want fresh, cutting edge, not the same old stuff, I'd suggest "new music", e.g., classical music of the last few decades. Try George Rochberg, Akio Yashiro, or even, if this stuff is too much for you, more accessible stuff like Kronos Quartet. Or try some of the jazz that's happened in that time frame. Your drugged out garage bands just don't reach the same level of creativity; may not be hipper-that-thou, but that's where you'll find what you mistakenly think you're listening to.
