Mmhmmm... DL their album Vinculum, it's really great. In fact, Sunday Munich is the group that spawned Saltillo, who everyone here was all over (and deservedly so) not too long ago.

These guys are great too:

Thanks dac, I found Elsiane through pandora or something the other day and then completely forgot how good it was. Any recommendation for albums?
I've found that just like with most electronica, I only like a small portion of the trip hop I've heard. Even in subgenres I really like the idea of, I can usually only find a few bands that I consider worth listening to, the rest sound boring or kind of like copies to me a lot of the time or just don't hold my interest I guess. Elsiane is one of the select few.

id also like to add glitch mob and pretty lights, pretty trip/glitch-hop in my opinion

As far as Elsiane goes, I'd say Hybrid would be my fav so far. I've only been listening to them for a month or two though, so it's liable to change many, many times.

Two Triphop acts that I like/own are:
Sepiamusic
Hungry Lucy

A well known album in trip hop circles definitely deserves a bigger audience. Dark and oppressive as well as being wildly original, there is no doubt that if it wasn't for this album then there would be no Mezzanine which is usually regarded as the ultimate Trip Hop album.

Taking it's cues from a myriad of influences, Maxinquaye is greatly enhanced by the vocal work of Tricky's then girlfriend Martina Topley Bird and Tricky's unerring brilliance of fusing musical styles. In fact Tricky is often on the peripherary vocally and instead let's his undoubted eclectism infuse the album.

His interpretation of Public Enemy's 'Black Steel In The Hour Of Chaos' is one of the best cover version ever put down (despite being a loose interpretation), whilst 'Brand New Your Retro' takes the Michael Jackson track 'Bad' and tears it to pieces and assembles it like genius jigsaw.

Hip Hop, Metal, African beats and dark Electronica all vie for attention yet it it is a collage of sounds that works effortlessly and never alienates it's audience despite it's dark ambience.

Want to know what Trip Hop is all about? Get this album and love it forever.

First one I liked, second one I liked even more.
I've taken more interest in this thread the past few days/week :)

would anyone confirm/second bands like boards of canada and Gorillaz, or the other 2 i listed before, as trip hop?

Boards of Canada definitely step in and out of the trip hop genre, but I'm pretty hard pressed to call classify them as such. Gorillaz definitely not.
