"New" doesn't mean that it has to be current, just new to your ears that you really enjoy!
Mine is "Talk Talk"s last two albums:
Spirit Of Eden (1988)
Laughing Stock (1991)
Both albums are simply amazing. How did it take so long for me to discover these pieces of audio art?!?!
Let's hear yours!
Night Gaunts.
A group of guys who came over from New Zealand and jammed in a crummy basement in the middle of Buffalo a few weeks ago. It was f**king awesome.

R.E.M., actually.
They're an old band, but I stumbled onto Losing My Religion by accident while youtubing a Soundgarden song.
^ YES. I might not have to kill you after all.
Automatic For The People for the win.

I've become quite the R.E.M. groupie in the past 36 hours :P

At least someone got to see all the good bands ;)
Another band recently discovered for me isn't a band but a lovely lady named Lisa Stansfield. Super talented vocally, pleasant to listen to and better to look at (in her younger years anyhows) :-*
for actual new stuff
there are so many bands coming out from Birmingham UK right now its insane!
Been listening to a lot of The Church's late 80s-early 90s albums lately, wish I discovered them sooner!

tei shi listening to her more than anyone else atm.
I haven't discovered a new song, but a whole genre. Industrial.
I love Metal, Power Metal, Heavy Metal, Nu Metal, Rap/Rock, Symphonic Metal, and my knowledge of genres pretty much dies there. There's so many different varieties of 'Metal' and I only know the ones I listen to long enough to pick up the word (and likely misuse it).
Now, through Nightcore remixes, I've found Dubstep, which at first I hated (because the popular stuff wasn't very good) but found some really great stuff, like Celldweller and Blue Stahli, and listening to them lead me to a lot of Youtube videos about 'Dark Industrial Electro' or 'Cruelstep' or 'Metalstep Mix'.
I really don't know of any Industrial bands though, I only have the hour long mixes I find.

If you are just getting into Industrial, I can suggest Stratvm Terror (extremely harsh Industrial) and Atomine Elektrine (ironically the same person). Also, I suggest you check out Dark Ambient. Some legends include Lustmord, raison d'etre (my personal favorite), Sophia and Inade.
I may have the wrong genre if those names you suggested are Industrial. I'm more into this kind of sound.

A Cappella and a drummer cover of Master of Puppets. It's fun to listen to, even though I can't stop laughing :D
I actually spoke to Zardonic and a couple of fans, and the exact genre of that music is a bit of a mess. It's called Drum and Bass, Aggrotech, Dark Techno, Trance Metal, Industrial, EBM, and Techno Metal.
Though, Zardonics music goes more by DnB (Drum 'n Bass).
THE SPYRALS
New San Francisco heavy psyche hard rock goodness. Really great live.

Cocteau Twins
I have always enjoyed Slowdive (from Sweden) and shoegaze overall. I finally broke down and got two albums from CTwins and both are GREAT. Music that is not made or sadly remembered anymore. I highly recommend Cocteau Twins for fans of The Cure, The Smiths, Slowdive (obviously ;) ) and Dead Can Dance.
White Clouds and Gunfire
Anavae
Dirth Youth
Forever Still
Freefall
a-ha
The new album, Cast In Steel, hit the charts at #8 in the UK. This newer sound of the Norwegian band is very nice and mellow-ly energetic. Great to hear that one vocalist in the world has an even better voice than when they "peaked" in 1985! Check out CIS, it is a very nice and relaxing album!
A while ago, I discovered funeral doom band Tyranny. Their album Aeons in Tectonic Internment is some of the heaviest, grandest music I have ever heard.
I've been listening to DNCE on the radio since last year. Until recently, I didn't realize that the lead singer was originally from the Jonas Brothers. (Nor did I know the name of the band until recently). I never heard any of the Jonas Brothers' songs. I just know that they were popular.

Stolen dance: Milky chance
Nice tune
Been listening to FM-84 a lot. I dig New Retro Wave. The sounds of the 80s today.
