Those of you who know indie

[JMcCallum]

I'm looking for some really good new music, lately I've been super into Radiohead, Interpol, the Pixies and Muse. If you know of an incredible band that isn't that big yet please post it up. Cruising through myspace music and waiting for pandora to bring something awesome up gets awfully tiring. Plus karma for any suggestions.

Try The Maccabees. Good band.Their Album Colour It In is a good one to start with.

The Dears, The Flaming Lips, The Strokes, Band of Horses, TV on the radio, The Arcade Fire

oldv but goody, The Smiths

but be careful, some of their songs can suck the life out of you and are dementors in disguise
