Depends on the feel you're going for.

I'd recommend anything technologically thrashy like Stabbing Westward or 
Nine Inch Nails. There's a local band around Seattle called Scar Tissue 
that's ideal if you're looking for a darker mood.  

I'm not a big fan of theirs, but Korn might be good.

Or, something less accessible like the Orb or King Crimson (the later stuff 
like B'Boom or Thrak)

Some of the less funky electronica like Crystal Method could work as well.  
Heck, even some Brian Eno might be useful...

Possibilities are endless... Acid Jazz maybe if you're looking for a spacey
feel, or Joe Satriani if a more upbeat style works for you.

Can you see it's all up to what you like/have ;)
