Default Most innovative bands I never heard of

What are some interesting, creative, innovative bands that someone who listens to music quite a bit may have never heard of. I mostly listen to rock and roll, but I like just about everything that isn't the opposite of the innovation I'm looking for (aka trite pop garbage).
I like Pandora for finding new music, but I think a forum may be even better.
Just to give an example of what I'm listening to now -
The Shaggs
The Buzz****s
The Slits
x-ray Spex (yeah a lot of roxy club stuff)
Local Natives
Early 70s Bowie
Vampire Weekend's first album
Them Crooked Vultures
Animal Collective
The xx
Devendra Banhart - what will we be
ratatat
and a weed themed old-jazz compilation

I really need some new music.
Any artist suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks
