For anyone who doesn't instantly flinch when they hear the word (well, it's sort of a word) "metal/hardcore" and thus doesn't earn themselves a smack upside the head, I reiterate how urgent it is that you at the very least give Misery Signals a listen. Quite possibly one of the more original bands to surface in the last few years and are excellent musicians as well as songwriters.

Praeserpium Machinarum:
I think I have whored them before but really you all need to listen to:

Figurines!

The best indierock band in Denmark at the moment, tight and energic, they are perfect for driving actually.
They have two cds, Shake a Mountain and Skeletons, here's their website http://www.figurines.dk

Go listen, I implore you!

so much to say

1.  The person that mentioned Final Fantasy - if you see him live you'll realize that the entire orchestra that you hear is just one guy with a loop pedal.  HE PULLS IT OFF FLAWLESSLY!!

2. Saetia - I deffinately reccomend the song: Corporeal

ok now for my reccomends

The brunettes.. great live show.. kinda sounds like a cross between the firey furnaces with the structure of the boy least likely to

Cut Copy - just a straight up new wave band... lots of fun to listen to in the shower

Octopus project - way intense rochno

supersystem - not the best record in the world but had s couple great gems on it try 1977, and I was born into the world

Tilly and the wall - no drummer... just a tapdancer.  nuff said

KharBevNor:
More recommendations no-one will take up.

Burzum The name means 'Darkness'. You will find no more powerful statement of intent and purpose in any band name ever. Burzum is the be all and end all of minimalist music, mixing sparse, hypnotic keyboard compositions with writhing, rhythmic, bleak and wasted black metal to create an over-powering aura of spiritual darkness. To really get Burzum, you have to listen to it on an album by album basis, preferably in the original format (LP or CD) or approximation thereof. Each Burzum album is designed to put it's listener into a psychological mood-state: almost a spiritual experience. Forget what Varg Vikernes did, or what he said. Just fucking listen.

Recommended tracks: If you're GOING to sample tracks, 'Ea, Lord of The Depths', 'Beholding the Daughter of the Firmament' ('Erblicket De Tochter Des Firmaments'), 'The Crying Orc', 'Han Som Reiste' and 'Die Kraft de Mitgefuehls' ('The Power of Empathy'). But as I said, albums are really necessary. For people here, I'd recommend the purely electronic works 'Daudi Baldrs' and 'Hlidskjalf'. But it's all incredible.

And now, LISTEN UP, because here's pretty much the two Indie bands I like:

British Sea Power Powerful, atmospheric experimental rock music miles above most of the other stuff I've heard from the genre. I particularly recommend the album 'The Decline of British Sea Power', and my favourite track by them 'Fear of Drowning'.

Tan-Hauser Gate Small, local and probably quite hard to get hold of, I think there may be another band with the same name as well, but they're wonderful. Only released a self-titled demo. Subdued, keyboard driven hypnotic rock music with a liberal dash of goth and the same oceanic mood that draws me to British Sea Power. 'Not Today' is one of the songs irrepressibly associated with my home Island, in my mind.
