I'm looking for bands that have somewhat of an electronic feel to their music - Think Thunderbirds Are Now!, Idiot Pilot, 65daysofstatic or The Postal Service.

And i'll also take a look at any bands you want to throw in just for the hell of it, always trying to expand my playlist :]]

Franz Ferdinand. Not because they particularly fit what you're looking for, but because they rock.
