This band oscillates between Indie and Alternative Rock. Seriously, listen to this band and (start with) this album. (Maybe they are more New Wave, but whatever. This thread fits a lot of stuff)
** The Sounds - Crossing the Rubicon ** GET IT NOW
Also, Scouting for Girls - Scouting for Girls -- This is if you like to feel in a happy mood. Great record, imo.
The Fifteenth - In Foxholes We Dug Ourselves -- If you're feeling experimental.
