Snow Patrol is good and I still consider them indie that just got popular, but I figured he'd have heard them by now. I was listening to them long before they blew up. | ||

Big names afaik that I haven't seen here much (one guy mentioned I think): Sufjan Stevens (I don't like him much, but he's really really popular here, maybe because he's from around here) and Iron and Wine (indie folk, even though I like neither indie nor folk that much I must say I like some Iron and Wine).... Also maybe you could try some Nickel Creek! Eliot Smith is the best imo but everyone listed him... XO is best. Thanks for reading, Kaotu | ||

I never listened to any of them except Modest Mouse and b/c of this thread im converted to indie(?) music. I checked out some of the bands and I was wondering if there are any other songs/bands that sound like the song from Bright Eyes "First Day of My Life." For some reason I like that song, but hey I never listened to this kind of music so i wouldn't know. thx again fro this thread and the suggestions of the other posters ^_^ That's a terrific song. Too bad nothing else Conor writes lives up to it -_-'. Elliott Smith has the most in common with what you're looking for. Say Yes is an awesome love song: that's supposedly his last show before he decided to stab himself through the heart. very sad  .also a similar song from the beatles: some more similar sounding elliott smith: + Show Spoiler + http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tOnIDRc0kg I hope I didn't go overboard o_O. I like to share music =). mrmin: kudos on the notwist. They're also one of my favorite bands =). | ||

Has anyone listened to the Broken Bells album? It's really really good! It's a collaboration album with James Mercer (The Shins) and Brian Burton (aka Danger Mouse; of Gnarls Barkley fame). It's swiftly becoming one of my favorite albums.  NOTE: Bumping old thread rather than creating new, redundant thread. | ||

I don't mind Mumford and Suns as well as Broken Bells but never really got hooked on either. But I'm seeing Crystal Castles and Black Keys live so all is good. Also Girls. | ||

Four albums that changed my life and I hope hope hope some others get into em :D. 1. Low Level Owl I & II- The Appleseed Cast 2. Turn On the Bright Lights - Interpol 3. Feels - Animal Collective 4. Seven Swans - Sufjan Stevens I'm one of those people who doesn't like to keep up with all the new music trends and gets tired of the hype sometimes. These albums are like the fun uncle you're happy to see and always brings firecrackers. A lot of the other music in this thread is great too. | ||
