I will make a list tomorrow. There are a whole load of good British bands just now, if you can't find them then you're either not looking hard enough, or not looking in the right places. They may not strictly fit your definition of "indie"...but you haven't exactly made your definition perfectly clear.

If you are merely complaining about all the "NME" bands, then what the **** is the point in that? Dedicate your energy to something more constructive, like finding the GOOD music.
Perhaps you didn't get the point. There's no doubt that there are a LOT of good British bands still around. The question is whether there's much NEW of any worth in the indie scene. For instance, one of the only London bands I've heard hyped up in more recent times was one called Les Incompetents. They've split up, and they sounded like your typical trashy post-Libertines garbage rock.
