The Indie & Alternative Recommendation Thread

I like math rock but pretty much only if it sounds in the vein of Owls/Ghosts and Vodka/Piglet/Tera Melos. The more noisy stuff usually irritates me, I like structure and hooks. No structure or hooks and after a few minutes I'm lost and disinterested. Hella's Tripper ('11) and Hold Your Horses ('02) are the only albums I've heard that are more noisy but still enjoyable for me. Anyone have any rec's for stuff I should seek out?

Edit: Also, my bad fer makin the extra thread- didn't know it worked like this :o

don't know that it's math rock per se, but The Digital Whiteout Dilemma struck me as something that could be called that, what with all the breakdowns and changes. catchy tho.
