Bands for getting into Indie?

<< < (13/14) > >>

Jackie Blue:
I don't know what major stores you go to, but at, say, Best Buy, pretty much anything on Matador is around $10, and most other indie stuff they carry is also cheap.  I think everything I've bought there that's on Arts and Crafts has been around $11?  And the Conor Oberst solo album on Merge was maybe $12, max?  And none of those are sale prices.

However, the point is you should order CDs directly from the label, because that's cheap and gets the label the most money.

Surely there must be other music you enjoy?  Also, which Beatles albums and songs do you enjoy?  Their material varied quite a bit.

But, building off what little you've given us:

Olivia Tremor Control
Beulah
Sloan
Caribou
The New Pornographers
All Girls Summer Fun Band
Belle & Sebastian

well i listen to japanese music some but mostly just for the extra language exposure
my mum also gave me a devil doll album, quean of pain, some  of the songs  remind me of my life so i like them even if some of them them are in a sickeningly Sven-Bianchi-country-music way :-P but the rest are fine i guess...
Um, I like the Sgt. peppers album, i have that ant the #1, help, abby road, lennon legend, & ringo star's time takes time. my fav song probably across the universe. also like: yesterday, cant buy me love, lucy /i/t sky /w diamonds, black bird, a day in the life, i've just seen a face, fixing a hole, we can work it out, within you without you, she's leaving home :cry:, from me to you, the fool on the hill, ticket to ride, good morning good morning, Help!, you say goodbye, Norwegian wood, paperback writer, strawberry fields forever, with a little help from my friends, the night before, when I'm sixty-four and Maxwell's silver hammer :laugh:.
 :| oops went a bit overboard, sorry :-P

I know what you mean. I, too, was raised on a steady diet of the Beatles as I grew up. I recently made a playlist of my -favorite- Beatles music, and could not trim it down to less than 150+ songs. But the songs you listed. Top notch. "I've Just Seen a Face" and "She's Leaving Home" are some of my absolute favorite songs. Ever.

Holy fuck, did not even notice that. The song is called Hello Goodbye. You are sure you are a Beatles fan, Seasmoke? And seconded on the emoticon usage. Did not want to chew you out, since you are a newbie, but now that someone else has mentioned it... do not do that again.
