Anyone have any infectious pop confection recommendations? (blues, indie, rock)

Hi! I'm looking for some album recommendations. I'm looking for stuff in the indie-pop/rock range that is extremely infectious, or "pop confections" so to speak. Buelah, the Cardigans' "Life", Apples in Stereo's "Funtrick..." come to mind. But stuff that doesn't get too pretentious or experimental or cheesy sounding. It doesn't all have to be positive and upbeat, it can be bittersweet as well. The Apples later albums just sound like the Beatles... same with Of Montreal. Just good solid indie pop/rock that has good pop-sensibility. Thanks!!

I tend to use eMusic.com to discover and download, but I still haven't found material that surpasses the artists I mentioned... (bands that show up in the "like artist suggestions" for example)
