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.

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

I have a ridiculous amount of indie music, but here are some of the more creative artists in my library.

The Slip - Airplane/Primitive

The Real Tuesday Weld - Last Words

Broken Social Scene - World Sick

We Were Promised Jetpacks - Quiet Little Voices

Sufjan Stevens - Chicago

Voltaire Twins - Animalia


edit: might as well add some blasts from the past indie and alternative bands:

Ned's Atomic Dustbin - Grey Cell Green

Candlebox - You

Unwritten Law - Teenage Suicide

The Faint - I Disappear

Regency Buck - Free to your change your mind
