Damon Albarn is one of my favorite musicians/song-writers ever!!!! I love a large percentage of his stuff from Blur, Gorillaz and his solo work. I also love bands like Aerosmith, Disturbed, Halestorm, Three Days Grace and Breaking Benjamin. I also like Demi Lovato and Lorde. In love the work that Sia produced BEFORE she started wearing that mask (her work for England before then).
I agree with the guy who said you shouldisten to more metal and grunge, and since you already listen to Three Days Grace and Breaking Benjamin, I think a great next step would be the heavy metal band Creed and the grunge band Nickelback.
