Who knows a few really good Indie/Rock bands?

Cassidy asked:


I need some opinions on some more good Indie/Rock bands. I know some typical ones like Modest Mouse, Vampire Weekend, Band of Horses. I’m trying to find something along those lines. I discovered MGMT not long ago and it’s my favorite band right now, but I need some more Indie/Rock bands to listen to. Opinions are great, thanks for your help!

    Cold Cold Water strung together with some video of I don’t know what, but it’s pretty well done

    Cat Power
    Silent Machine

    Yadwigha is spot-on with Pavement, as well.

    Kaiser Chiefs
    Mew
    Postal Service
    Blur
