Here are some sites I've come across that are good for inspiration:
Dredg - I really liked all the raw drawings. I also really like how the drawings extend deep downward into the site without repition.
Mute Math - I liked the colors used on this site. It's pretty normal as far as navigation goes and widgets, but I thought this site had really great color and imagery.
The Dear Hunter - Great flash site with fantastic sounds and music. The artwork is most impressive about the site. It almost makes you not care about the band just to navigate the site.
Rise Against - Thought this was pretty standard too though I really liked the texture and colors used. It also displays a flash banner that has some nice artwork.
Placebo - This was awesome because it has a video displaying on the entire background. Also, great use of the .ico icon at the top. I know you can do it as a .gif but this is the first time I have seen it used as an animated .gif.
Mae - Love the color palate. I also really like the use of quote boxes. Very fun and inviting.
Incubus - Again, great colors used in this site. I'm also seeing a trend in sites that use a lot of artwork through the site. Like the Dredg site, I loved the different pieces of drawings on the site.
Guster - Fun interactivity in the header.
Dashborad Confessional - Not the greatest of all sites, but thought it was note worthy because of the navigation.
Here are some sites that I thought could use some help:
Ratatat - Nice logo header, but no navigation. Only tour dates and video on a white page. kinda boring.
From Autumn To Ashes - I was shocked when I saw this site. ooof.
We Are Synapse - Web Company that does some really inspiring work.
More coming later...
