I forgot about Ming and Ping.

I like "Dream of Pop" by them.

Another "synthy" band is The Faint!

While not "synthy" as in 'sounds like the synthpop I loved in the 80's', the new CD by Does it Offend you Yeah (yes, that's their name)has some pretty interesting/inventive use of the synth.

I borrowed their CD from the local library (!!) and it's starting to grow on me.

<p align="justify">I also dig VNV Nation, although their sound is more rough/aggressive.</p>
