check out goodweatherforairstrikes.com, sick blog, its where I find all my indie and indie sounding music.
 
great site, thanks!

i really don't know what to choose. i love most indie music, but i like pretty much every other genre too, so i dont know what to have on my ipod (4G). :(
 
wow i tried making a thread like this once

and it failed horribly...

theres some sick bands in here though
 
get a last fm. spend time looking fr yourself if you really care. dont listen to other peoples opinions. find stuff for yourself. and indie isnt a genre.
