Derulo probably stole it.

MClewis...which albums did you check out from Rise Agaisnt and The Bravery so far?

by CBarca Wed 22 Feb - 0:13:29

Yeasayer is an amazing band that all of you should check out!

You might recognize the song O.N.E from FIFA 09- a Yeasayer song (that is amazing) that was on the soundtrack.

Note ** The last song actually stops after about 4 ish minutes, and has silence for about 2 **

I'll post more of this band when I hear more, but from what I've heard I really like them, not very well known- The ACB's

This song rocks!

by CBarca Fri 30 Mar - 3:08:06

I should edit that and add more..

Anyway, ummm..

Oh yeah.

Starsailor. Very good band. Will post some videos when I get a chance (which may be later tonight...) but I'm going to start on some homework... yummy.

by Le Samourai Fri 30 Mar - 4:23:00

Keep it going .

I have to get into all the post 2010 stuff before I start to post more.

Kinda took a tangent with Rap and Classical recently.

omgomgomg I have so much more to add Ima bump this and hopefully add some later today.

I will update this thread a couple days in a row with a new artist everyday hopefully Very Happy

Not all indie rock per se, but as we established, that's not a necessity exactly for this thread due to the broad definition of the term

by CBarca Thu 26 Apr - 6:04:14

As I promised before, some Starsailor

STARSAILOR - BAND FROM WIGAN

*Roberto Martinez would be proud*

by CBarca Thu 26 Apr - 6:11:00

As a side note, to follow up on what I said before about posting a couple more Acb songs...

Can't find hardly any of them on youtube Sad

by Twoism Thu 26 Apr - 7:31:34

Trailer Trash Tracys, their song was used in The Killing

if you're fan of Twins Peak, these songs will be oddly familiar.

Amazing song by an amazing girl- Olof Arnalds from Iceland.

by CBarca Tue 1 May - 5:02:45

To post a couple more just to give a little more recognition to this amazing Icelandic artist...

Tomorrow I'll post songs by another Icelandic artist- coincidentally the cousin of this woman- Olafur Arnalds. A neo-classical composer of the most peaceful music I've heard in recent times, not to mention brilliant.

Between Sigur Ros, Olof Arnalds, and Olafur Arnalds- Iceland has some great artists, some of my favorites in recent times. All really peaceful, nice music too. I'll have to look for some more Icelandic artists.

by Thimmy Tue 1 May - 14:47:02

Magnet, a mellow, norwegian artist.

by CBarca Thu 17 May - 5:14:26

Thanks Thimmy, I quite like him.

A great, very interesting long song by a band based out of England- Her Name is Calla

Still checking these guys out, but really liked this song and had to post it.

by matpol Thu 17 May - 22:59:23

Did anyone listen new Keane album? I'm going to listen it tomorrow, I don't know if I should get high hopes or it is average album. Last album was great with some hits like You Haven't Told Me Anything or You Don't See Me. Hopefully it won't disappoint me.

by CBarca Mon 21 May - 4:48:25

Quite honestly, this music is right up my alley and might not be for everybody...but this band Her Name Is Calla is ridiculously good.

That song is absolutely amazing...

*Sight* I'm sorry I didn't follow through, I am full of unfulfilled promises.

Amazing, amazing artist this Olafur Arnalds- one of my favorites right now. Breathtaking music.

Need some more Aussie bands!

:bow:

I have returned :coffee:

With....wait for it.....Hip Hop Indie :coffee:

In math class this morning, teacher turned on Radiohead (all radiohead in a row, In Rainbows album) for like 30 minutes.

Best 30 minutes I've ever had in a match class, ever. Radiohead are so fking good. I know we've all known that for some time, but it still needs saying from time to time.

by CBarca Thu 31 May - 5:55:08

Hail to the Thief or OK Computer...argh I don't think I'll ever be able to choose.

ENJOY THIS MASTERPIECE. I know everybody is aware of Radiohead, but we could always have some motivation to go back to their awesomeness. I know I hadn't listened to them for a bit, and that's a mistake.

by CBarca Wed 6 Jun - 23:26:34

Will try to find the movie this is from this weekend and watch it.

It's from Once, an Irish, indie movie that had this song win an academy award for best original song. Check out the duo, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova!
