Music Recommendations?

[mi|kshake]

Unsure if there's a thread similar to this or not but since there's a few world music fans here I thought I'd post....

It's probably a bit early to be posting yet, but I'm going back to Paris in December. Last time I was there I went to the Virgin Megastore which I was soooooo impressed by! The HMV in my city is totally crap, and I was totally amazed by the amount of CDs the Paris Virgin had. I had a good look around - attempted to look for one of Emilie Simon's albums, but I couldn't find any. Unsure if maybe she isn't that popular or if I was just looking in the wrong place. In the end after a while of deciding what to buy I went for Tokio Hotel's Durch Den Monsun single (which months after buying it, I have only just got into lol). Anyway with the amount of CDs they have I want to do some serious buying!

So I was wondering does anyone have any recommedations of CDs which I buy there? They don't have to be French - just anything which I can't get in the UK. I'm quite weird about trying new music sometimes, so it would help if when recommending an artist or band, you can post some album covers, pics, reviews, videos etc, or point me in the direction of where I can get these. (Just a name of a band prob won't make me check em out lol, but an amazing review will!). I know it's a while off yet, but I wanna research what I'll be buying.
