The Indie & Alternative Recommendation Thread

x Cheez iT · 04-29-2010, 07:15 PM

Hey, so lately I have been just wanting to hear some new stuff.

I am like looking for some relatively unknown indie gems that came out in the 90s, 00s. Actually, they don't even have to be unknown.

I was thinking of checking out The Hold Steady, Stereolab, Ted Leo, Joanna Newson, Smog, Grandaddy, The Beta Band, The Brian Jonestown Massacre.

There are quite a few bands I really want to check out, but the list just racks up so much.

Anyways, here is my last.fm page so you guys can get an idea of my music taste.

I can't really name one genre of indie/alternative I like, but I do seem to enjoy lo fi, twee (indie pop), some shoegaze, and... hell even some new wave/post punk stuff like Joy Division, Talking Heads, The Smiths...

I don't know what I am looking for, but would like some new stuff to listen to is what I am trying to get at.
