I can't believe I've never thought of this before, but I'm listening to last.fm's Guilty Pleasure tag radio and it's pretty consistently awesome. The pop:emo ratio is about 10:1, and whilst it looks like it's technically possible to hear Radiohead, that hasn't happened yet. It's certainly the best tag radio station I've found - most of them tend towards the same kind of homogeneity as the overall top 10 (Radiohead / The Beatles / Red Hot Chilli Peppers).

I'm hoping that
http://www.last.fm/tag/whiney%20voice%20turning%20vowels%20into%20dipthongs (http://www.last.fm/tag/whiney%20voice%20turning%20vowels%20into%20dipthongs) takes off in a big enough way that it's streamable...

Liking fluxblog tho', cheers!
