how about the 'yeah yeah yeahs'? fronted by Karen O (not to be confused with Kelly O!!), a really charismatic singer check out 'date with the night' which is played in a lot of clubs and is great, really frenzied and thrilling. 'maps' by them is slower and is truly beautiful definitely one of my favourite ever songs

To be 100% factual "Indie" is an independant band, meaning not signed to a major label - so none of the above mentioned bands are technically indie!
But who is 100% factual all of the time? ;-) I certainly am not and always refer to a certain style of music as being Indie, even if it is a band signed to a major
