"Foreign Tides" by RY X is a great song I'm into at the moment, meaning I just discovered it on the LetsLoop music-sharing site.
It's like the Silversun Pickups crossed with the Police. Of course, making 'educated generalizations" like that makes me sound as pretentious as I am. 
Also, I'm not even confident in their accuracy. I think you need as least three band coordinates to make the old "crossed with" work.
Like I might say the Killers sound like a mix of The Smiths plus Dire Straits plus the Neon Trees plus Queen plus Thin Lizzy plus the Strokes in their more disco-esque moments— but only after you add spiked Dr. Pepper to the concoction.  Pretentious but you get an idea. 



"Foreign Tides" is a little brooding for a weekday, but still I think this song is worth a share.
