I don't get how these bands are "indie". Every single one of them is signed to a major label. Indie isn't a type of music. It is a business practice.

Indie:

That's fine, a lot of people aren't tolerant of other peoples music. So more power to you... I listen to a lot of music, and most of falls it WAY outside this type of music. In fact just yesterday a section of my work playlist went something like... Dave Matthews Band, Hatebreed, Lisa Loeb, Kings of Leon, 2pac, Cold War Kids, Atmosphere, Eyedea (RIP homie), Spogga, etc etc. You get the idea.

The Smiths were signed to Rough Trade Records, at least during the entire time the Smiths existed as a band. An independent label.

Any time, not the BEST three I couldve put out. If you like indie though you LIKE animal collective they ARE the best.

But trust me there is more where that came from xd

I fucking hate when people use "indie" to describe a particular genre. Especially when someone is using this tag to describe a band that is signed to a major record label!

Love me some indie. I like to think indie represents the light mellow quirky feelings in life that do exist so why not have music to reflect these inherently human emotions. Plus, it reminds me of what i think elevator(music) rock and roll would sound like... lol

But yeah, these are the immediate bands that come to my mind when i think indie ..

Right, genre bickering aside here is some stuff I've been digging lately that probably falls under that tag

You have good taste :) Grizzly bear, animal collective, and deerhunter are what I've been listening to for the longest time :) those three make my day almost everyday.

Grizzly bear has some awesome music videos! They really do! Is while you wait for the others the one with all the ghosts and the hand comes down and spites them? Heres some good 'video' songs animal collective does. They trip you out at the right times. In a good way.

Yea AnCo was a staple for my trips last semester. I still listen to them a lot sober though too. Great band, so unique. Sung Tongs is my favorite album.

You got great taste too brother. If you like sadder stuff and who doesn't at times, check out The Antlers, Hospice if you don't already know it.

This one makes me cry without drugs
