I heart
Questionable Content. Jeph (sometimes) subtly namedrops bands, and he and I have very similar musical tastes. We're pretty much post-rock snobs, and then expand post-rock in several directions until you reach other related genres that seem unrelated to each other.
Basically, you end up with indie pop, like The Flaming Lips, and death metal, like In Flames. (You see what I did there with the "flame" in the band names, lolol.)
The Postal Service, Opeth, Regina Spektor, Mastadon, etc.
(And of course put the /actual/ post-rock and math-rock in there, so Slint and everyone they've ever influenced.)
Anyway, I'm thinking about doing a post-series expounding the virtues of every band subtly mentioned in the strip, starting from day one. That would be lols.
Here's an example for how "subtle" it can be.
See this here?
Check out
Giraffes! Giraffes?. Really bouncy and silly math-rock band.

Hah! I love Questionable Content. Of course, I have a whole collection of webcomics that I must check every day... I have them all organized for maximum time management. lol Just one more viral meme that's taken over my brain.
