Recommend me some alternative/indie music.

I've always been big into electronic music, not dub step or DnB etc, but more creative stuff along these lines -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2DTnOH_MGc

Anyways, I've started to branch out into indie/alternative rock music over Christmas, I've decided to make a little revision playlist for the holidays.

Stuff I already like, The vaccines, The lumineers, Alt J and Vampire weekend.

I'll listen to/reply to all suggestions, so post away please.

Thanks. :kitty:

There are many more, but not sure they are that similar to the artists you quoted. Indie/alternative is a very big genre....
