Magneta Lane - Secrets Aren't So Bad
The Constant Lover EP was pure awesomeness, the first album - not so much. It has a darker tone that doesn't suit their music very well.

In other news, I've been splurging on CDs left and right. Been getting some Pink Floyd, Sigur Ros, Beck, Flaming Lips, and some others, and yesterday I hauled away Mogwai's Come On Die Young, Floyd's The Final Cut, Massive Attack's Mezzanine, New Order's Substance, My Bloody Valentine's Loveless, and finally found Portishead used. Not quite Dummy, but still, y'know, Portishead (read: great).

I hear that BoC plan on re-issuing some of their old self-released tapes at some point.
I think you can find some of them on t'internet too. Loveless is a classic album too, Kevin Shields said that we would get a third album "100%", and that it would be better than Loveless (which is apparently why it wasn't released sooner).

Speaking of ambient, experimental, etc... which album by Can would be best to start with?

Hah, Cocteau Twins now? I guess that makes sense if you're a fan of My Bloody Valentine. Dream pop/shoe gaze is pretty cool. I've just started discovering it, along with "post rock" (Mogwai, Sigur Ros, Tortoise, and the original post rockers, Slint; planning on trying out some Talk Talk as well). I already had listened to a couple "trip hop" albums but I'm also exploring that as a genre nowadays.

Explosions In The Sky are good post-rock, they're like Mogwai with guitars sounding like a sort of Cocteau Twins/U2 hybrid.

Sweet, I'll give them a listen. Oh, and found your other question. For Can, I'd go with Tago Mago. I'm a sucker for ridiculously long tracks.
EDIT: Seems they have five albums. Which is the best to start with?

The only album I have is 'The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place', if your liking for long tracks is true, then I'd recommend it, since all its tracks are over 8-minutes, though, unfortunately, the instrumentation is hardly varied, with every track consisting of traditional bass, drums and guitars.
Still a good album, though. np: some old Neutral Milk Hotel bootlegs.
