| Indie Blog Raids
I'd like to thank the following users for introducing me to some awesome indie bands that I wouldn't have found otherwise considering how close I was to giving up on the genre: Brokenjewel, Prophet, eternium, Reliquished, Irad, musicaddiction, March_of_Sand, cirq, Adam, IndieOut, and Brick. After compiling my list of what I wanted to check out, I embarked on a near five hour journey yesterday, raiding every indie blog in sight and picking up whatever looked/sounded interesting in the process, in addition to what you guys suggested. I also decided to pick up some hardcore and post hardcore while I was at it since I'm severely lacking in that department as well (I'd appreciate some recs too). When it was over, I ended up with almost 2.9 gb of new music. Here's some of what I grabbed. | 1 | | Brand New The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me | 2 | | Midlake The Courage of Others | 3 | | Arcade Fire Funeral | 4 | | Doves Kingdom of Rust | 5 | | Fuck Buttons Tarot Sport | 6 | | Florence and the Machine Lungs | 7 | | Fanfarlo Reservoir | 8 | | Anchor & Braille Felt | 9 | | Miike Snow Miike Snow | 10 | | The Mayan Factor In Lake' Ch | 11 | | Faunts Feel.Love.Thinking.Of. | 12 | | Minus The Bear Planet of Ice | 13 | | Minus The Bear Highly Refined Pirates | 14 | | Passion Pit Manners | 15 | | Consider the Thief Signs and Wonders | 16 | | Phoenix Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix | 17 | | Silversun Pickups Swoon | 18 | | The Decemberists The Hazards of Love | 19 | | Paul Dempsey Everything Is True | 20 | | As Cities Burn Son, I Loved You at Your Darkest | 21 | | As Cities Burn Hell or High Water | 22 | | As Cities Burn Come Now Sleep | 23 | | The Receiving End of Sirens Between the Heart and the Synapse | 24 | | Black Moth Super Rainbow Eating Us | 25 | | Black Moth Super Rainbow Drippers | 26 | | Red House Painters Songs For A Blue Guitar | 27 | | The Shins Wincing the Night Away | 28 | | The Snake The Cross The Crown Cotton Teeth | 29 | | The xx xx | 30 | | Built to Spill There Is No Enemy | 31 | | Wintersleep Welcome To The Night Sky | 32 | | Neverending White Lights Act II: The Blood And The Life Eternal | 33 | | The Sound of Animals Fighting Tiger & The Duke | 34 | | The Sound of Animals Fighting The Ocean and the Sun | 35 | | Trespassers William Different Stars | 36 | | Trespassers William The Natural Order of Things | 37 | | The Red Paintings Your Tears Are Warning Signs | 38 | | The Red Paintings Walls [EP] | 39 | | The Red Paintings Destroy The Robots | 40 | | The Red Paintings Cinema Love [EP] | 41 | | The Red Paintings Feed the Wolf [EP] | 42 | | Reign Supreme American Violence | 43 | | Ruiner Hell Is Empty | 44 | | Verse Aggression | 45 | | Coalesce Ox | |
