Found the New Pornographers on EMusic last week. They seem to be along similar lines as the White Stripes. No particular songs stand out yet, but I like 'em.
Also found a band called The Griffins a while back. You can hear them on Mp3.com. I don't know that they're especially original or anything — they remind me of other rock bands I've heard (somebody compared them to Neil Young and REM) — but several of their songs get stuck in my brain, like "Big Sky". I can't find out much about them online and it seems like they haven't gotten anywhere much, but it's a shame. Certainly you'd think KFOG and KPIG would find room for them on their playlists.
Finally, downloaded a few of Har Mar Superstar's songs from his website. Pitchfork had a particularly harsh review of his album "You Can Feel Me", but whatever. There's no depth to these songs, but they are fun and funky, and I like them. So lighten up, Pitchfork. :-)
