Hi, My name is Joseph. Currently residing in Canada..

A question if I can regarding genre(could find a proper forum to post this in).
I'm primarily a Pink Floyd/Roger Waters fan, who also enjoys The beetles, The doors, Queen, Echo and the bunnymen. Normally older music, and normally fairly relaxed. I cannot stand today's "hip hop" or "pop" with all the negativity and what feels like forced lyrics.

I'm looking for a particular genre with a "take you along" for the ride kind of feel to it. An attribute I find Floyd and Roger Waters has captured far better than anything else I've listened to thus far. As well, I'm overplaying too many of my favorite songs which is taking the feel away from them-making them too predictable-. Which is why I'm desperately looking for a few new bands.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
