Good Indie Bands?
|
Akio 09-18-2004, 06:35 PM Hey, I'm not sure if there's a post on this already... But I couldn't find any! I was wondering if anyone knows of some good Indie bands? Hahaha, my music's kind of getting boring. All I can really think of is The Strokes, Modest Mouse and The Vines! I think Modest Mouse and The Vines are Indie. Hahaha, anyway can anyone help? :confused: ratrice 12-10-2004, 03:29 PM Belle and Sebastian, The Shins, The Postal Service, Elliott Smith, Neutral Milk Hotel, Iron and Wine..... Check out sub-pop records, they have some good bands. Ad 12-10-2004, 03:29 PM Mikael 12-26-2004, 03:40 AM Here are some of the bands that I can remember off the top of my head. I'll ask a few of my friends and see who their favorite indy bands are as well. Interpol Gravity Pulls USHC Brand Men's Jeans AFK Cheers! sera20 10-07-2005, 07:22 PM There is a Canadian indie group called The Organ. I have a site with links to their music, videos and pic. They sound alot like Morrissey come check them out. http://p097.ezboard.com/bsinkinghearts SNGX1275 10-08-2005, 01:58 PM Rise Against - Give It All (its a song) It is a yelling type rock song, and the bass drum is very heavy in it, if you have a good sub, it will rock your walls as well as any rap song. I have a few other rise against albums, but the aren't of the same caliber as that song. sera20 10-11-2005, 08:16 PM I'm having a merchandise giveaway for The Organ fans or people interested in learning who they are; for more details go here http://p097.ezboard.com/fsinkingheartsfrm10.showMessage?topicID=15.topic jimbo23888 03-17-2006, 09:19 PM listen to the obvious but best: gotta b arctic monkeys the kooks are fukin awesome we are scientists maximo park subways milburn lithiumdeuterid 03-18-2006, 10:56 PM I'm assuming "indie" means "indepedent". I am curious as to what indie bands are declaring independence from. Are they declaring: Independence from on-pitch singing? Independence from interesting chord progressions? Independence from technical skill in playing and in composing? Independence from lyrics about anything besides angst and depression? Independence from hi-fidelity mixing/mastering jobs? All of the above? Only the indie bands know for sure. I'll take the processed sounds of Dream Theater over Neutral Milk Hotel's quavering, self-pitying tirade any day. |
