thats a good list of bands there. listen to a lot of them myself.
The Draytones are a really good band, so check them out on Myspace. they're kinda Beatles-esque/garage and Blood Red Shoes, which is a girl/boy duo who play some pretty awesome tunes. you can just search these bands on Myspace.

NB: The Strokes are American and Wolfmother are Australian, but top bands nonetheless.

and by any chance, do you read NME?

Jaysus, there's a huge list here. I'll have to check a load of them out, I haven't heard of a few of them.
Ah my friend's the lead singer of a band who have supported the Switches they're called "little thief" but they're not big yet or anything.

Look See Proof are a good indie band. and The maccabees are making it huge at the moment, well at least in my school, they're hot shtuff.

The Bravery's from the United States btw.

UK bands... The Gorillaz... and The Darkness

Busted's pretty good if you want a pop rock band.

Then of course there's Coldplay.
