Mogwai

(1/14) > >>

Kanno:
So..  I figured I'd give this indie rock a try.  I went out and bought Mogwai's Come On Die Young and now I have questions:

Is this what all of indie rock sounds like?  It's like... drone rock.  Every song is played at such a slow tempo.  I don't mean to bash the music, I understand that liking music is merely an opinion, but I don't get why people have recommended this band to me.  I was looking forward to amazing build-ups and melodies, and I got... elevator music.

I guess this came off as more of a rant then it should have.
Can anyone point me towards a different indie rock band I should check out first before giving up?  I'd never thought I'd say this, but I guess I'm looking for something a little more "pop-like".

EDIT:  I really dig newer singer-songwriter type stuffs..  ala Ben Folds and Ben Kweller.  Or anybody named Ben.

Inlander:
Nothin' wrong with pop.  Try the Shins if it's interesting melodies you're after.

blindsuperhero:
Belle and Sebastian

zekterellium:
awww, mogwai are great. this makes me a sad zekterellium.

nickyandthefuture:
I tried a mango and didn't like it.  Is all food terrible?

Anyway,
Darren Hanlon
James William Hindle
Iron and Wine
