I've been listening to the Garden State soundtrack, and as a result, my ears have been opened up to a bunch of new artists, including ones suggested by this forum.

This question is a bit more specific however -

The songs In The Waiting Line, and more specifically, Lebanese Blonde really piqued my interest.

I'm wondering if anyone could reccomend some groups that have a poppy/acid jazz kinda sound similar to Thievery Corporation and Zero 7?

Sigur Ros?

Some recommendations for artists and starter albums:

Fragile State (Voices From The Dust Bowl)
Blue States (Nothing Changes Under The Sun)
Bent (The Everlasting Blink)

...and, of course, get more Thievery Corporation. (Zero 7's new album is not that good.)
