I like stuff like Mars Volta, At the Drive-in, Sparta, Ours...Basically stuff that isn't main stream or just barely is.

Any other suggestions for good music to get?

As per the description. I like stuff like those bands and will explore any new music as I have stuff all the way from Coheed and Cambria to ACDC to Alice Cooper. I will listen to anything but having gone on a few road trips in the last couple weeks I'm starting to expire my 20ish gigs of music.

New Pornographers
Arcade Fire
Broken Social Scene
Earlimart
Noogie

off the top of my head. A great indie rock podcast is 'The Post Modern Rock Show' by Dave Cusick. The guy is cool.

I heard At the drive in on Sirius yesterday.. Good shit!

Don't really know how the bands you listed sound, but Republic of Loosen is a good Irish band.
Their release this past summer:

Thanks for the suggestions. Just got the new The Streets album and also got new Rise Against...Might have to see if Del has new stuff out right now.

Oh by the way I like good hip hop. Deltron, Del the Funky Homosapien, Del (whatever he's called at the moment haha), The Streets, Classified...Such as those.

good call on the second song...first one is decent will have to listen to it a few more times to see. But Break is awesome.

If you like underground hip hop, download anything by Murs... specifically his 3:16 album.

Not sure if these two are Indie but I like Muse and The Kooks, and for a good female artist check out Lily Allen.

They're a bit hard to find here, I think they're mostly in Ireland (and recently in the UK). They have a Myspace, so you can see if you can get any off of there. The single 'Comeback Girl' should be the easiest one to find though.

This is considered indie in the UK, apparently.

No one has mentioned TV on the Radio! Jesus the second album is sex with god and everything good.

Can't think of anything else off the top of my head at the moment.

Just dl'ed all the Nujabes stuff...pretty awesome stuff!

There's a discography torrent with all 5 of his albums.

Can I post the link? I'll probably buy these albums since they're only on 192.

You might want to check Australian Indy sites. I remember when I lived down there , lots of people listen to some great music. If you like Muse / Bloc Party / Streets type of stuff?

I used to love The Streets - Turn the page(hip hop) , i used to listen to it over and over a few years ago . its good to break too.

Sick beat and lyrics



Dangerous Muse - The rejection

Saw these guys a few years back in Montreal before they were anything. I used to listen to this song before surfing , its tight.
