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.
