three steps to indie-rock bliss

1. go to your nearest record store
2. buy modest mouse - good news for people who love bad
news
3. worship
BONUS STEP 4. worship me for telling you about modest mouse

My bloody valentine - Loveless

That might do the trick.

i saw the word emo for them and freaked out. i saw the words
thrash metal for cave in and freaked out a little less --
i'm downloading jupiter first.

haha i wouldn't say it's all that emo. as for cave in their
older stuff is more metal, but 'jupiter' is very um 'space
rock' or something. it's good. yes.

if you really want to rock out see local H live

that shit gets intense, they got kicked off the silverchair
tour way back in the the day cause they kept tiring the
crowd out before silver chair could play

cat power rocks out in like one song.

ladytron are electro-pop.

grandaddy is too poppy at that.

flaming lips are old stoners who make stoner music for
generation x.

and the rest. *waves away

ok, ok, i know people posted a lot of recs, and you probably
aren't downloading anymore, but you must check out
built to spill, especially the album keep it like
a secret
... just download the tracks 'carry the zero' or
'temporarily blind' as teasers. it's both
thrash-and-go-wild-and-swoon rock and arty indie homebrewed
beauty.

also, if you like mogwai, you'll prob. really like
"explosions in the sky", a texas(!) band.. esp the album
that has a name that starts with "those who tell the truth"
something something.

rocking out for people who are serious about rocking out:

Comets on Fire <-- earthy r&b rock run through the psyche
blender... loud as fuck... no... louder still... takes a few
listens, but well worth the effort

the Ex Models
Polysics <--two very hyperactive punky
rock (as opposed to punk rock) bands, doing very naughty
things in very little time...

Oneida
Deerhoof (you've probably heard us yap about these guys
before, though...)

hmm... well British Sea Power is a lot like Interpol... but
i'd say that only the first half of the album is
worthwhile...

oohh! maybe the Hot Snakes? Les Savy Fav? Brainiac?
Dismemberment Plan? Gang of Four? the Contortions? And You
Will Know Us By The Trail of the Dead? Rocket from the
Crypt?
