01.02.13 | And Third Eye Blind. |
Firestarter
01.02.13 | Lol Kid A is a brilliant album, but not really radio friendly. I do play a lot of Pixies and Smashing Pumpkins as well. kind of looking for some more modern stuff that is good if there is any |
bach
01.02.13 | I catch your drift.
The Killers - Hot Fuss? |
bakkermaarten007
01.02.13 | Jam (early) Placebo, (early) Killers, Silversun Pick-Ups, Cake, Suede, The Smiths, The Sundays |
Chortles
01.02.13 | the bends is a better choice for a radiohead album if we're going for radio friendliness |
bakkermaarten007
01.02.13 | You could play some Sunny Day Real Estate as well, radio friendly enough |
Calc
01.02.13 | fun?
biffy clyro?
imagine dragons? |
bakkermaarten007
01.02.13 | Oh and the Cure and Joy Division |
bach
01.02.13 | The Get Up Kids - Something To Write Home About |
Firestarter
01.02.13 | Yeah I play stuff from the Bends on the show regularly. I hate the Killers lol. I tend to lean more towards Alt Rock rather than Indie, but I do play some such as Foals, Band of Horses, Iron and Wine etc..
Silversun Pick-ups might be a good shout though |
Firestarter
01.02.13 | Sunny Day Real Estate fits the bill too I'll check more of them out. Cheers

01.02.13 | The Classic Crime - Phoenix
Anberlin - Vital
Young Guns - Bones
House Of Heroes - Cold Hard Want
We Are The Ocean - Maybe Today, Maybe Tomorrow
^these were released in 2012
Deaf Havana - Fools And Worthless Liars
Thrice - Major/Minor
Bayside - Killing Time (mostly considered pop punk, but I think they were showing a bit of an alternative/rock side on this album. It may be worth a shot)
^These were released in 2011
These might work for you, especially if you are wanting more recent stuff. |
bakkermaarten007
01.02.13 | Okay, as for indie: Stars, Pavement, Built To Spill, some Brand New, The Mountain Goats, Pinback, Sebadoh, some Appleseed Cast (albums post Low Level Owl). All radio friendly enough |
Firestarter
01.02.13 | Ooh wow. Some great stuff there. Amberlin and Young Guns sound great. I'll have to check out the rest as well. Want lots of new bands on the show for the new year, I was tending to play the same bands over and over towards the end of last year.
Thanks for the recs guys! |
Ecnalzen
01.02.13 | Honestly, you could play just about anything from Anberlin and The Classic Crime and Young Gun's first album is really good too (All Our Kings Are Dead), as well as Thrice's Beggars. I'm sure you have heard Chevelle, but they are always a safe bet too if you haven't thought about playing them. Maybe The Black Keys as well (El Camino and Brothers are their more recent albums).
I can come up with some stuff from the earlier 2000s/late 90s too if you want. I am mostly just shooting off stuff from the last 3-4 years. |
Gwyn.
01.02.13 | Anberlin is good and friendly alt rock.
The rest, well, idk about "radio friendly", but here are some good ones:
Thrice
REM
My Bloody Valentine
Brand New
Jeff Buckley
and Radiohead(particularly the bends) |
Coast
01.02.13 | 2012
Poets of the Fall - Temple of Thought
Sydonia - Waiting for Words That Don't Exist
Sent By Ravens - Mean What You Say |

Kman418
01.02.13 | Say Anything - ...Is A Real Boy
The Sidekicks - Awkward Breed
The Flatliners - Cavalcade (some of the tracks on this one are iffy, but there are definitely some radio friendly songs on it)
Queens Of The Stone Age - Songs For The Deaf
|
SAW18
01.02.13 | Audiovent - Dirty, Sexy Knights in Paris
Acceptance - Phantoms
Karnivool - Themata
Revis - Places for Breathing (look at the songs From That Point On, Living Rooms, and the title track)
the catch is that these are fairly old bands from mid to early 00's |
Ecnalzen
01.02.13 | Thanks, Shadow.
lol @ Audiovent. I actually have that album, it's got some decent songs on it. What a wonderfully obscure rec. |
Firestarter
01.02.13 | Thrown all of these into a Spotify playlist, having a listen to pick out which ones I want on the show. It's all good stuff so far! |
