When I was 17 I cut my hair and swapped Metal for Indie, for a brief period. Back then it was Britpop so lots of Blur, Pulp, Oasis before moving on to American bands like Pavement, had Crooked Rain on a few times last week and Shady Lane is still one all time favourites. Dinosaur Jr somehow passed me by till recently.

Laid is great. But check out Tomorrow by James.

July by ocs

And anything by the verve.

Check out shatners common people and Mike flowers pops wonderwall. Terribly brilliant.

How did I miss this thread?

The tracks that bring out the Indie Kid in me are many and numerous.

The ones that stand out are

Seven - James

Cabin Fever - The Wonder Stuff

Pretend We're Dead - L7

Little Baby Nothing - Manic Street Preachers

Putting Out Fires - The Bluetones

My iTunes Music account is convinced it's still 1990-something.

Was wracking my brain trying to remember Dodgy last week. I finally remembered the song Staying out for the Summer.
