Your 5 Favorite Indie Rock Albums of the Past Decade
 

This is my first post on here, so I'd like to make it count!

Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record
Foals - Antidotes
Ra Ra Riot - The Rhumb Line
The Helio Sequence - Keep Your Eyes Ahead
Dredg - El Ceilo

Ok, sorry, nevermind

1.radiohead - in rainbows

2.arcade fire - funeral

3.arctic monkeys - favourite worst nightmare

4.interpol - turn on the bright lights

5.the strokes - is this it / bloc party - silent alarm/ deerhunter - halycon digest

very 'typical' but it is what it is.

Very interesting choice, almost everyone would choose their debut over their sophomore. I'm curious why you chose that one when, as you said it yourself, your list is very typical.

1. The Fall - The Real New Fall LP
2. The Fall - Fall Heads Roll
3. The Fall - Reformation Post TLC
4. The Fall - Imperial Wax Solvent
5. The Fall - Your Future Our Clutter

What a great decade it's been.

its just a fairly standard list isnt it?

favourite worst nightmare is incredible, it has the perfect mix in my eyes. short catchy indie pop songs in the first half, perfectly built up songs with crashing guitars in the second half. It also has 'if you were there beware' and '505' two of my favourite songs ever.

f.uck Arctic Monkeys.

Here's my top 10, no particular order.

The Microphones - The Glow, Part II
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Belong
Purplene - Purplene
The Wrens - The Meadowlands
Paulo Nutini - These Streets
The National - Boxer
Arcade Fire - Neon Bible
Coldplay - Parachutes
Laura Stevenson & The Cans - Sit & Resist
The Maccabees - Wall of Arms

I dunno, in no particular order:

Rubber Factory by The Black Keys

Let's Stay Friends by Les Savy Fav

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeah's

Brothers by The Black Keys

Tyrannosaurus Hives by The Hives

1. Radiohead "In Rainbows"
2. The Antlers "Hospice"
3. Arcade Fire "Funeral"
4. The National "High Violet"
5. We Were Promised Jetpacks "These Four Walls"

I don't consider Radiohead to really be an indie rock band, but they were mentioned so why not...

They aren't indie, but they sort of sounds like an indie rock band.
