lauriej: Give It To Me Baby

jingledeath 01.02.10	sup man haven't heard either of these but maybe you should try: Mew - Frengers or No More Stories... Neverending White Lights - Act II
scotish 01.02.10	hellz yeah! Animal Collective - Strawberry Jam Coldplay - Viva la Vida (no, really) Frightened Rabbit - The Midnight Organ Flight (optimistic in bits, and overall in a backwards kind of way) Guided By Voices - Alien Lanes (!!!) Idlewild - Post Electric Blues mewithoutYou - Brother, Sister/It's All Crazy! etc also, what I've heard from Andrew Jackson Jihad (esp people that can eat etc) is very optimistic and indie in equal measures, and you'll deffo wanting to check out the 'Dark Was the Night' compilation album cos it's basically 2 discs of what you're after. hope you check out some of these, I've basically just gone and named some of my favourite albums evar :D
AggravatedYeti 01.02.10	blk bjks -after robots Cymbals Eat Guitars - Why There Are Mountains The Futureheads - The Futureheads
lauriej 01.02.10	cheers guys.. AC is a definite yes, but coldplay? wut? i need some Cymbals eat guitars, Mew and mewithoutYou so bad. oh and jingle, nm bro, you?
jingledeath 01.02.10	nm bro, just chilling and expanding my tastes by checking out lots of non metal material recently haha. oh and i forgot to mention The Swell Season - Strict Joy, it's one of my favorites from this year.
BallsToTheWall 01.02.10	All the girls say i'm pretty fly for a white guy.
jagride 01.02.10	R.E.M. - Lifes Rich Pageant
TRMshadow 01.02.10	Your title reminded me of that stupid Offspring song. The only indieish album that I can say was optimistic with any confidence is the new Manchester Orchestra album.
DENEpants 01.02.10	andrew jackson jihad is definately not optimistic. first line in first song on people who can eat people.. is "god's ears are stiches" and also not indie.
