I want this poor noob to get a solid base and hear the influences before they move on to modern indie...
It's funny, if I had to think of the 5 albums that first turned me on to music beyond the realm hardcore punk, it would probably be these 5. Excellent list!

Here's 5 of my favourite albums that I could call 'indie':

the clean anthology
guided by voices bee thousand
yo la tengo painful
ride nowhere
