Do the Rapture still count as a hipster band? To this day I still think Echoes is the bee's knees.

Do you mean bands that are hip to listen to here on this forum, or irl?

irl.

In that case, HIM, Avenged Sevenfold (though I really only like their City of Evil album), Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Daft Punk, Metallica (hell alot of people I know who don't like metal like Metallica), Lamb of God (though I think they're very overrated) and Atreyu.

I think Darkest Hour will have the longest list in this thread. =P

i still like the Olivia Tremor Control, among others. although much of what once interested me about those genres now bores the pants off me tbh.

i don't like using that phrase anymore, if i can help it. most of my friends (and relatives) who listen to music regularly are somewhat inclined to steep themselves in that sort of music anyways, i usually don't bother them about it.

TV on the Radio are probably my favourite modern band. Crystal Antlers EP is great as well. Assuming they're both hip.

On the other side of the coin - NMH and Animal Collective left me pretty underwhelmed, from Avery Island and Merriweather Pavilion respectively.

ok, i'm gonna ask this again

WHAT THE FUCK IS A HIPSTER BAND?!?!

It's pretty much a band that all of the "cool" kids like.
