    [​IMG] I have recently been listening to alot of Bright Eyes. An indie band with some real creativity and talent, and I loved them. Had to get online and rave about them. :D

    Just wondering what the rest of the sorcerer's place crew think about indie rock...particularly this band. Post with your comments, gripes, or questions concerning indie rock or Bright Eyes. :)

    Very Nice! I'll remember to keep that website dogeared. Free unlimited supply of indie music and similar kinds. I love the internet.

    Thanks for the heads up Sir Belisarius. :D

    I recently bought the album (deep breath)...

    ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - Source Codes and Tags.

    its kinda progressive epic indie type stuff, real good, bought it on impulse too, like it very much.

    Hot Hot Heat and The Strokes are also favourites of mine.

    Indie Rock. The Strokes have released two albums, get the first. 'Is This It?'. Much better than the second.

    I never really liked Bright Eyes. I saw them live earlier this year, when they toured (they played a festival that I went to), and I was still unimpressed. Conor Oberst is a very arrogant musician.

    @Septic

    Source Codes and Tags is a killer album. Their new one (World Apart, iirc) isn't nearly as good, but worth a listen to.
