I would have to go with:
The Shins- Sleeping Lessons
Los Campesinos!- Death to Los Campesinos
Sufjan Stevens- For the Widows in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah- Over and Over Again
Animal Collective- Grass

These are my picks for the more recent indie that has come out. You can reel newcomers in with the irresistible fun of The Shins and Los Campesinos!, show them the more soulful side with Sufjan Stevens, then move onto the bands that are more of an acquired taste, such as Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Animal Collective (the less abrasive songs by them, at least).
