1.) Slanted and Enchanted- Pavement (The holy grail of Indie music)
2.) Doolittle- Pixies (Probably my favorite all time album and essential for Indie)
3.) Painful- Yo La Tango
4.) Dusk at Cabist Castle- Olivia Tremor Control
5.) 69 Love Songs- Magnetic Field

1. Dinosaur Jr. - You're Living All Over Me
2. Modest Mouse - The Moon and Antarctica
3. Cursive - Domestica
4. Neutral Milk Hotel - In The Aeroplane Over the Sea
5. Afghan Whigs - Gentleman

More leaning towards Indie Rock, but whatever, these albums are all killer and at least semi-essential.
