Indie Music
 

If I'm into Indie style music what would you recommend? I'm bored of what is currently on my Ipod.

I tend to go for Single songs but I want a new Album.

the enemy - we live and die in these towns
the view - hats off to the buskers
the wombats new album - can't remember the name, sorry

yeah that's my contribution
:) xx

Indie is now dead.

Real Indie I suppose is The Smiths.
Razorlight are not indie. Bands like them are not indie.

When you say "indie" what sort of indie do you want?
NME style Indie,or real, GOOD, original indie?
British, American?
Not at all bothered?

Ummm, personally? I'd go for stuff like The Smith, New Order maybe? The Shins possibly? Sonic Youth (<3).
Totally depends on what you think indie is?

I like the Cribs, a lot of their stuff is pretty good.
Apart from that I'm more into obscure bands than the modern Indie bands.

I'd say the Smiths.
They're really brilliant.

I dunno what you call it at all really. It's sort of easy going with a beat certainly not too heavy.

i like new indie

my fave bands

pigeon detectives
morressy
reverend and the makers
long blondes
the music
klaxons are good
oasis are good
arctic monkeys
etc lol

Morrissey isn't new indie.

THE FEELING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!

Best Indie band in the world, new album out on monday

oh god.
the feeling are not indie by a million million miles.

Maybe the music I want isn't Indie at all then. I listen to all sorts just after new stuff really. I'll have a look in a shop I think. Morrisey is pretty good though :)

The Feeling?!

Wow, I'm surprised that anyone can class that in any genre but pop, but there we go.

Genres are often funny things, and tend to vary. So perhaps try out some of the bands in this thread, and others you hear talk of, and see what you like. Y'know, myspace & youtube are useful when it comes to that sort of thing. x

yeah ano morrissey isnt new indie. i was just syaing a general fact.. followed by bands i liked

The Feeling? They're commercial bollocks just like Razorlight, Keane, Coldplay.

Jeez, people! Syrup is just asking for you to recommend some music, which has a vaguely 'indie' sound. Who the hell cares whether it's new indie or old or sounds a bit too rocky or poppy or whatever to be technically classed as indie?! This is so silly! Music doesn't fit into nice slots like that.

lol ^^

try grindie!

Anything starting with 'The' basically.
Personally I'd like to see this indie trend to die, people get very hostile and elitist about it.

You may like "The Size of a Cow" by "The Wonder Stuff".

Sounds like the kind of thing you described. Haven't listened to any of their other stuff, so can't give an opinion on it.

I won't even try to put it in a Genre because I'll get shouted at if I get it wrong.

What gets me is people get so offended by other peoples tastes.

Why? What does it matter to anyone here what I like?
