New to this site so not sure if this has been tackled but I (and I'm sure others) would love to be veered to new artists that might have slipped past our radar. I'm thinking include a recommendation of a rarer artist (with sounds like...) that you think peopel should listen to.
Personally, I love the Shoes and 20/20 and would love to find a power-pop band with a bit of new-wavey influences to dig into. Basically, power-pop looking toward the future if you will.

Have you given a listen to Flaming Mussolinis? I think the 4 songs I posted there are still up at the MP3 trading section of this board.
They rock!
By the way, what happens when you're no longer new to this site? If you switch to olddave7, you're gonna be "running up that hill" again.

Go Cry- Pitty Sing
A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody- The Lashes
Sometimes the Sun- The Lashes
Hard to Beat- Hard-FI
Unsatisfied- Nine Black Alps
Is It Any Wonder?- Keane

For some older power pop - check out the Reducers, Jack Lee/the Nerves, the Neighborhoods, and Any Trouble.
There have been a few power pop related threads here. If you do a search of the boards, you'll find some awesome recommendations!

I recommend VERY highly the UK band The Rifles. This is great stuff!!
If I could buy my reasoning,
I would pay to lose
