I don't know how popular bands are these days, because I haven't heard more than about an hour of music radio in the last six months.

I really like this band Ivy, which is very much like Garbage, which was in turn kinda like a re-invention of Missing Persons. You take a really precision band with a deep understanding of production and team it with a slutty-sounding soprano to make high-concept pop. The twist in Ivy, I take it, is that the lead singer is French. (In Garbage she was Scottish, and in Missing Persons she was the drummer's wife.)
