When I saw the thread title I thought the exact same thing Jerome..
U2,Coldplay,Portishead & Muse aren't far behind them though

I know I'm getting tedious about this, but would y'all cut in some links to buttress your points? BTW, here's some from Arcade Fire--surprising to me, I like them immensely:
Reflektor full album: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tqhlb2fs0Ac
Here's AMG on it: http://www.allmusic.com/album/reflektor-mw0002581228 << If somebody fully understands this review, please apprise me--I'm baffled. The Great Wordy Insensibly Whatever, Just Groove, Dude.

ARCADE FIRE RULES !!!!!!...love to see them live! The beggars dropped in here a few years back and gave an impromptu concert just before the McCartney concert scheduled for a few days later...my mind set was on Macca...missed the great Arcade Fire!!! Reflektor may not be as good as their previous albums...for instance The Funeral...but there's enough good music on it to please me!

As for Radiohead, one cannot deny their impact on alternative music! Lead member Thom Yorke is acclaimed as a musical genius in some circles, Funny that The Beatles were mentioned in Crazy's post..."each to their own mate...i have a couple of friends who think Radiohead are the greatest thing since Beatles."When I first heard them at my favourite music store I instantly remarked to the store owner..." An electrified Beatles" ...she nodded Yes! I always go to their song Creep for a fast adrenaline jolt ...I love the song! Also their album Kid A is extremely good!
 The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!
