This needs to go in the 'Non prog music' section...

I'm not really up on Indie music these days, but I like some bands from yesteryear..

The Cure
Curve
Lush
Cocteau Twins
The Sundays
Cranes
Ride
Boo Radleys (early stuff)

The best indie is the Arcade Fire, Hot Hot Heat, and Metric. I'm not really into it, but it provides some good listening. It's the only style of music more that is more 'unique' than prog. And the Arcade Fire have genius lyrics- I'd actually say as good as Pink Floyd, if not better.
like the lyrics to Neighbourhood #3 (Power Out):

I woke up with the power out,
not really something to shout about.
Ice has covered up my parents hands
don’t have any dreams don’t have any plans.

I went out into the night,
I went out to find some light.
Kids are swingin’ from the power lines,
nobody’s home, so nobody minds.

I woke up on the darkest night,
neighbors all were shoutin’ that they found the light.
(”We found the light”)
Shadows jumpin’ all over my walls
some of them big, some of them small.

I went out into the night.
I went out to pick a fight with anyone.
Light a candle for the kids,
Jesus Christ don’t keep it hid!

Ice has covered up my parents hands
don’t have any dreams don’t have any plans.
Growin’ up in some strange storm,
nobody’s cold, nobody’s warm.

I went out into the night,
I went out to find some light.
Kids are dyin’ out in the snow,
look at them go, look at them go!

And the power’s out in the heart of man,
take it from your heart put in your hand.

What’s the plan?

Is it a dream? Is it a lie?
I think I’ll let you decide.
Just light a candle for the kids,
Jesus Christ don’t keep it hid!

Cause nothin’s hid, from us kids!
You ain’t foolin’ nobody with the lights out!

And the power’s out in the heart of man,
take it from your heart put in your hand.
And there’s something wrong in the heart of man,
you take it from your heart and put it in your hand!

Tut-tut Andy ... an undercover operative for the Topic Police, eh?

But you're right ... I'm-a-moving-it!

I'm currently listening to The Waifs. Purchased the cd a few weeks ago and still can't go a day without hearing it again.

Great folk music. I can't say enough good things about them.

Another good one is The Mike Plume Band. I don't know if he's still indy or if he was signed.

I love indie. I wish I could make a list of the bands I love in the genre, but I'll recommend just one album by now (later, I'll make a list):

And above all, is punk

Bikini Atoll.  Their new album doesn't impress me though.
