Franz Ferdinand, The XX, and The White Stripes. (I know the White Stripes aren't exactly new now, but I really do like them, and they are sort of new?)
Edit: I wouldn't call them mindblowing. I wouldn't call any band I know mindblowing. They are just really good.

Wow, that's the first time I ever heard Flats, and the first thing that immediately comes to mind is Swell Maps...
I feel like they're headed in the right direction, I can only hope that they don't go the way of the Horrors.

smiling . melting and marvel at the amazing talents (voicewise
,entertainer qualities, multinstrumental, very unique way of musical styles)
of the musicians at the same time
their current album is le pop

“A uniquely creepy beauty.” – Village Voice
„David Lynch meets Nick Cave.“ - Clash
“It is a sound that literally drags listeners into a surreal, cerebral place -
one of train rides through constant rain, staring into an unfolding landscape.
It's inevitable that with Timber Timbre's plaintive yet emotional sound
, listeners will find themselves in a headspace all their own.“ – Beat Route Magazine
‘somewhere between Tom Waits, Antony Hegarty and the Twin Peaks house band,
an unusual combination that casts an alluring spell’ - Independent
Timber Timbre is a Canadian folk music project.
The moniker refers to an early series of recordings made in
a timber-framed cabin set
in the wooded outskirts of Bobcaygeon, Ontario.
Timber Timbre released two albums independently
before releasing a self-titled album on Out of This Spark
in January 2009. He subsequently signed to Arts & Crafts,
who re-released the album on June 30 in Canada
and July 28 internationally. The album was named as a longlis
t nominee for the 2009 Polaris Music Prize on
June 15, 2009, and was deemed album of the year by Eye Weekly.
The band's song "Magic Arrow" was featured in the television show
Breaking Bad, in the episode "Caballo Sin Nombre."
Timber Timbre's sound has been described as "an aesthetic rooted in swampy, ragged blues"
and "beautifully restrained blues from an alternate universe",[6] which creates an atmosphere
that is cinematic and spooky.

* Simon Trottier (Lapsteel, Electric Guitar, Loops, Sampler, Autoharp, Baritone Guitar, Percussion)
* Mika Posen (Violin, Keyboards, Loops, Percussion)

Oh, well I now the White Stripes aren't new, but they are really good. What exactly is the definition of new? The XX just came out with a cd last year and they are working on new music now, (aren't they? I can't remember if they said that for sure anywhere.) And Franz Ferdinand's last cd is old, but they are working on a new cd right now. (This I know from an interview. They thought it could come out early this year.) I forgot about Anna Calvi. I do like her. I like Ok Go too.

Studio. A swedish band that makes some kind of balearic pop. They're amazing. They can hardly be described as new though, considering they released their first single 2001 but the first album came first 2006 and is still their only proper album. They're hardly known outside of Sweden though, which they really deserve to be. I don't know how to imbed videos but here are two of their best songs:
Shake U Down By The River

Yeahh, in February at Manc Club Academy. Think it only holds about 500 people, so one of the smallest gigs i've been to, but also, one of the best!

Forget my fate.
Agree entirely about Anna Calvi. Going to see her live on Thursday, can't wait.
Anna Calvi and Chapel Club, the best 2 in the last year or so (for me).
