- expectations, we rule the school, sleep the clock around
- expectations, we rule the school, sleep the clock around Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Death Cab!!!!
Also, they're much more emo than indie, but everyone should go check out The Academy Is... They're a new band and they're absolutely fantastic. I'm also in love with Mae right now.

Goddamnit Jess! 
She's right though.
TV On The Radio make heavily soul and electronic inflected psych rock. It sounds like a mess, described like that, but the songs are superbly crafted and endlessly gorgeous, without exception. Frontman Tunde Adebimpe has, I'm not kidding, the most phenomenal voice I've ever heard.
The Most Serene Republic are what the Postal Service might sound like if they were forced to do ecstacy. Then acid. HUGE synthesizer swath every song, while a girl/boy vocalist duo sing happy nonsensical things in the laid back near-falsetto Ben Gibbard's made so popular. Frenetic and bubbly indie pop.

Just because I am sexy, naked, a bassist, and sporting a top hat doesn't make me Duncan Coutts!

ok kids, here we go y'all.
Hope of the States - black dollar bills, 1776, the black amnesias.
i absolutely adore this band. check out these songs and the band they're good.
And you will know us by the trail of dead - another morning stoner, monsoon, will you smile again, how the rest will follow, ect.
Austin TexAs' finest biznitches!!! all hail TexAn rock!
Halifax has a song called sydney that's good, acustic and regular version. it's primo.
blonde redhead - ghost riders in the sky. an old country classic turned pretty cool.
ok, that's it for now, i'll check in with new stuff.
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

Halifax is indeed kickass. I've been hooked lately on their cover of "Straight Up" from Punk Goes '80s...Bandalero wrote:i like cat power, good woman is also a good song, plus they do a good cover of wonderwall.clumsychild_ wrote:Cat Power - Ice Water, Maybe Not, He War

"The white dove is gone, the one world has come down hard, so why not share the pain of our problems, when all around are wrong ways, when all around is hurt, i'll roll up in an odd shape and wait, untill the tide has turned.....with anger, i'm dead weight, i'm anchored"- IME, God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) ^ Some say this song is about a terrorists thoughts before 911

I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.
