Unfortunately, most of the bands I really love have broken up. Some of my faves are/were:

Chakra - girl band that used to do Indian-style music
Hush - a female duo with awesome pop music
YIIK - a rock band formed by a Korean vocalist and a pair of Japanese brothers who played guitar
Duke - my all time favorite techno band; a male duo with a lead singer that totally had a woman's voice! XD
Novasonic - really unique metal/rap band; can't get enough
Street Poets - they're a bit obscene, but can't help loving them
Hip Pocket - don't think they ever became mainstream, but they were really funky and talented

Anybody heard of any of these?

YIIK
Novasonic
oooh man old school
