What album should i get my mum for her birthday? (electronic, rock)

Sound Devastation · 02-28-2007, 02:19 PM

I need some help!!

I want to get my mum some new music but im totally stuck for ideas!

she listens to:
Moby
Coldplay
Sting
U2
Mogwai
and not much else.

I thought of maybe some electronic influenced post-rock.. Tortoise, Do Make Say Think or God Is An Astronaut maybe. I also thought of My Bloody Valentine...

ideas anyone?!

If she likes U2, How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb was a really good album. The joshua tree is always a good choice too.
