Seriously, go to www.pandora.com. You set up your own "stations" based on artists you like and pandora pulls up all kinds of great artists similar to what you put it. It's awesome. I've found tons of new artists that way. Sometimes little known artists aren't on there but if you put one in and pandora can find it, they do a great job matching styles and sounds.
maybe try some brutal death metal

I also listen to those artists and I enjoy these:
David Gray
Ray LaMontagne(love!)
