Sigur Ros has many albums, but the one I've listened to is from 2005 Takk
.

there is a new EDM/houes song that just came out from an indie artist in Florida, its pretty awesome, was abit suprised might wanna check it out, " Beat of My Heart" i found it in google play

As far as 'of Montreal' goes, they have gone through several completely different phases...

Acousic Indie: "Cherry Peel"
Elephant 6 Psychadelic ****ery: "The Gay Parade"
Electro-Pop: "Sunlandic Twins"
Halfway Between two Genres- "Hissing Fuana, Are You the Destroyer?"
Scum-Funk: "Skeletal Lamping"

Honestly, the great thing about the band is that Kevin Barnes never does the same thing twice. All of them are great, but if you want a starting point get either "Hissing Fuana, Are You the Destroyer?" or "The Gay Parade".

The National:

Boxer
High Violet
Alligator

Ok so my favorite modern band is probably Vampire Weekend, most people probably know them but to those who dont they're a really fun listen and use a lot of african roots in their music. and nirvana's just my favorite band of all time. ooooh also the dresden dolls im really starting to get into, regina spektor, ben folds, best coast, kishi bashi are some of my favorite indie/ alternative. idk there's too manyy

Check out this new band WAVES! they are sooooo good

As for Sigur Ros, Takk is their best, in my opinion, and is one of the more varied in terms of musical themes.
-Go for () if you like the slower builds and the enormous finales
-the first half of Meth suth i eyrum etc if you like the happier festive tracks with heavy percussion
-Valtari if you like the ambient-influenced, mellower stuff.
-Brennistein is their new EP, and it's darker and industrial.

Here's an across-the-board sampler of their tracks:
