I have been listing to Interpol a lot lately so I agree with that particular suggestion.

Some of that is the indie stuff I listen to, I have also been listening to Rilo Kiley and The Arcade Fire.

If you want, my cousin has a band and I heavily enjoy them...you might as well, who knows. The link is www.minorbroadcast.net. His band is "Kicks to Hypnotize" and then the singer/guitarist has some solo stuff that is wicked awesome under "Scott Steele".

O-Zone - Dragostea Din Tei :cool:

lol

weakerthans

Hmm, you might like Low - The Great Destroyer (album, that is). So give it a shot.

all i've been listening to lately is the new System of a Down cd

Radiohead

Failure
John Frusciante

also, i'd recommend kaiser chiefs too. Was in an indie club last night and it turns out 3 of the songs i enjoyed the most were by them. so yes.

There's a time and a place for the Kaiser Chiefs.

oh

Im surprised no one mentioned Nick Cave

Holy shit.

:love::love:

Holy shit?

yamatsuka eYe and CHEW?

Am I the only one that listens to rap and hip hop a lot

Hopefully.

My "emo" friends reccomends them

Onelinedrawing, Far.

Nah but I listen to more than just that

Holy shit the number of bands in that list I didn't expect someone to actually listen to on these boards. Let alone suggest in an "indy" thread.

...Since, you know, "indy" now means pussy music.

Here's some good shit.

Type O Negative
The Headstones
The Hugh Dillon Redemption Choir

Type O Negative is "indy?"

Kinda, they're most certainly not mainstream, so I'm not sure how you'd qualify them. But they kick ass anyway. One of the original "emo" bands.

Not really emo.

Pete has testicles. ;)

:rofl:

Devil made me.

but seriously, since I don't acknowledge emo any more than I do Nu-Metal as a genre, I can't really call them proto emo. Emo's just a "odds and sods" category for trendy agnst.

Type O doesn't really fit in there. Even there darker songs aren't angsty enough for the likes of the pop crowd.

Really? Including the song "Unsuccessfully Coping With the Natural Beauty of Infidelity"?

That's pretty angsty right there.

That's about as bad as they get though, and really, I don't find it as "waaah I'm misunderstood" angsty...

Most of their lyrics are dark, bordering on depression or angst, but generally aren't all that much of either. Nine Inch Nails is closer to the angst of "emo."

This is true, they're more of an "I hate everything" angst. Oh yeah, and don't ever compare NIN to "emo" again. :rant: ;)

Yeah, there's a huge world of difference. Trent doesn't suck. :D

I didn't really mean to classify them all as "indie", those are just the bands I listen to. Some of them could be classified as indie to some people I guess. However, there are some in the list that aren't indie at all. Such as the ones you mentioned and a few others. The meaning and overall take on "indie" music has changed kind of recently though. I didn't really expect anyone on these boards to recognize much of anything I posted in my list actually.

Yeah, Indie is now a genre, rather than someone being on an independent label. The funny thing is they still love to sell this major label drek as in some way independent. Yes, you're indie, and I'm the new Sabbath Frontman.

I know a lot of those bands, but I selected the ones I own/listen to. Others (Wilco, the Flaming Lips), I never got into. Some I only know by name. Some of the ones I quoted aren't that surprising (The Pixies), some are sort of surprising (Frank Black's work without the Pixies, Dinosaur JR), but GALAXY 500? That was definitely a shocker. I have trouble even finding their stuff.

I have the Galaxy 500 box set with all of their albums, it's pretty awesome.

Sweet. I don't think I've even SEEN that.

Yeah, I haven't seen it since I got it. I purchased it a while ago at a music store in Syracuse called "Sound Garden". That place is the best...it has pretty much any album you can think of. Real good prices too.

Until recently, we had a shop tha twas great. Called "Rap City" and if he didn't have it, he could find it. Real, bootleg, out of print, he could almost always find it. I ordered one thing with Mark that didn't come in. I'm convinced it doesn't exist, though they claimed it would be released. It was awesome. The dude knew me so well too. He'd actually have a copy of the latest Ferrick or Stone Coyotes set aside for me. And he always knew his shit.
