MrMagpie Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Yeah they're great. For songs I would check out Golden Age, Dancing Choose, Wolf Like Me, Staring at the Sun. Maybe give Interpol a shot too? Their album Turn On The Bright Lights is genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix debuted with this song which was a huge hit: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub36ffWAqgQ]YouTube- Phoenix - If I Ever Feel Better (Clip)[/ame] Followed a few years later by this one: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8tGNe4ygrY]YouTube- Phoenix - Everything is everything[/ame] I dunno if it was big outside France...I have the feeling that the 'world' really discovered them with 'Wolfang amadeus Phoenix'... :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djibou Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 For Emma. Lovely. If you like it, look Skinny Love and Blood Bank up from Bon Iver as well.

emily_megz92 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I love indie, alternative and experimental music. I'm gonna recommend a band called The Maccabees (who are my joint-first favourite band ever. They're up there with Coldplay. Haha) [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fs1wkwAMQc]YouTube- The Maccabees - Love You Better[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j44-GTlOU6k]YouTube- The Maccabees 'Toothpaste Kisses'[/ame] Those are the two music videos with the most view counts on Youtube. Orlando Weeks is AMAZING <3 I love him :) haha Here's what I listen to: http://www.last.fm/user/AmilLeh Hope you like them. The more you listen, the better they become :) x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjaiken Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 First off, I don't believe in labels. I am on record as saying that many times. BUT if I did, I would categorize most of these recommendations as Indie, not alternative. When I think of alternative music, I think of stuff ranging from the Smiths/Pixies/R.E.M. to Pearl Jam/Radiohead/Smashing Pumpkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djibou Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Well I agree that some songs in the thread are indie more than alternative. But some of the artists mentionned in this thread are too popular to be called indie, so we call them alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
