I guess I'll cross post in here from the recommendations thread. Does anyone have any modern (within the last 10 years or so) ragtime or ragtime influenced bands? I need to find some for a school class but I really ama t a loss of where to begin looking.

White Ghost Shivers Wikipedia posted:White Ghost Shivers is an eclectic American band based in Austin, Texas which claims cabaret, jazz, vaudeville, hokum, western swing, hillbilly, jugband and ragtime as its inspiration. The band has been declared "Best None of the Above" by the Austin Music Awards for 2005 and 2007. I don't know enough to differentiate between those styles so I can't recommend a particular song, but they have four albums from which to choose something.

Nobody seems to have mentioned Austra's second LP "Olympia" yet. This new album is much less dark and cold than the first one (even though i still think said first one is a blast), with some parts that really sound very 70es-inspired. Overall, the whole thing sounds more polished, but still retains that special coldwave thing they had on the first album. Saw them in concert last month: they improved on-stage as well. Stelmanis' and the twins' voices are definitely more adjusted. Their choregraphy and gestures in general still make them look as if they were on mushrooms, though. That's a good thing, i guess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQfbw6e2Yz4 Orillion fucked around with this message at 17:58 on Jul 24, 2013 |

I'm really bad at comparing bands, but I guess if you like Bon Iver you like well polished folk rock so maybe try Fleet Foxes or Iron and Wine's last 2 albums? There's also Justin Vernon's side projects, the Shouting Matches album is pretty dope if you like blues rock.

Has anyone else been following AlunaGeorge this year? They're maybe a little more indie R&B than indie pop, but each one of their singles is better than the last, and their album, Body Music, finally comes out next week. It's currently streaming on their site: http://bodymusic.alunageorge.com/ "You Know You Like It" and "Attracting Flies" are my favorites, but the whole thing's pretty consistent from end to end. I'm excited to see if their live show is equally as great later this fall.

Edit: Oh, and Wye Oak's album is really good. Can't comment on the similarity with Bon Iver since for some reason i seem to be the only person on Earth who can't recall a song from him (the name and face have been ringing a bell for quite some time though)

Boris Galerkin posted:I really like Bon Iver. What are some other goon approved similar music? I can really recommend Fleet Foxes and everything they've done on the basis that they're my favourite band of all time, but you also might wanna check out Father John Misty, their ex-drummer and former boring singer-songwriter Josh Tillman's band. Their debut, Fear Fun was probably my favourite album of last year. I can also recommend Lord Huron who's really good at creating evocative, western sounding folk music and a ton of songs about traveling places. For reference: Father John Misty -  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iS84BMFszW0 Lord Huron - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_e8RRTT0r8 EDIT: To add to the 'music to get laid to', I need to add King Charles. It's difficult to listen to music like this as a man without the express purpose of getting laid. Whorelord fucked around with this message at 13:04 on Jul 27, 2013 |

I usually just lurk this thread but someone should make an NMD Indie Rock/Pop/Folk/Electronic collaborative Spotify playlist to make discovering and accessing this music easier. I'd appreciate it anyway. Edit: Actually, make 2 lists. a 2013 list and an "all-time" list. and here's my ongoing best of 2013 playlist for reference, I'd just make it collaborative except I prefer to keep it a collection of songs I personally like and also it's maybe 5% not-Indie.

J. Roddy Walston and the Business are releasing their third album ("Essential Tremors") in about six weeks. If you've never heard of these guys, you're missing out. Here's what NPR has to say about them:NPR's World Cafe posted:The quartet stomped through the world head on, with smirks on their faces and a fist-pumping attitude. Their infectiously rugged southern rock 'n' roll, laden with repetitive hooks, praises rock in its purest form. With their bluesy chord progressions, distorted guitars and those grizzly vocals, J-Roddy Walston and The Business has the gritty air of Kings of Leon circa 2003 mixed with uplifting choral anthems a la Dr. Dog. The tunes are good on your car speakers or your home system. They're even better live: RedEye Chicago posted:And I thought I picked a needle in a haystack when selecting J. Roddy Walston and the Business as my favorite show at Lollapalooza 2011. Antimusic posted:The world is full of experiences that must be seen in the flesh where no picture, film or story can measure up to. The Sistine Chapel, the Grand Canyon, the Great Wall of China and while we're at it, let's add seeing J Roddy Walston and the Business to that list. OK, I know what you're thinking; "Here's some writer looking to over praise some unworthy indie band". Just because they may be indie doesn't mean they are undeserving of the praise I am about to bestow. The scruffy yet jubilant foursome have a brand new self-titled record in stores and while it's loud enough to make the needle on your record player skip, it's the hair swirling live experience that burns into your brain. The live show is downright riveting and if you believe in the sheer power of the live experience, then put J Roddy on your bucket list; it's akin to an intimate encounter you can't wipe from your mind. The sweat, closeness, smells, surprises and ultimately the release are the same except one takes place with your clothes on. As I recently watched J Roddy and the Business at the Double Door in Chicago, the scent, sweat and feeling of frenzied physicality were all on hand. In a rare feat, J Roddy and the Business executed all of this being an opening act for not just one but two other acts. The venue had room to move when they opened with their Jimmy Miller Stones like "Don't Break the Needle", but by the final wailing notes 45-minutes later, the crowd was drenched in a spiritual and sexual transformation where their eyes bulged, they pulled themselves off the ground, headed for the bar to quench their thirst and to the smoking areas to ponder the musical climax that just occurred. Culturemap Austin posted:J. Roddy Walston is a hurricane of hair and hands. He's playing with urgency and head-banging so hard the fans on the balcony are feeling a steady breeze. He's sporting an early 90's Seattle look: lengthy locks, flannel and plenty of scruff. And his quartet's sound is equally rugged, equal parts southern rock, electrified honky tonk and parlorhouse piano on crack. The band is touring through early November and is hitting pretty much every corner of the country. They've also released the first single for free dowwnload. If you've ever remotely enjoyed a single loud rock song, you owe it to yourself to check it out. VVVVVVVVVVV EDIT: Whaaaaaaat!?

Old, old news - this was announced before Christmas. It is good news though, even if the Warm Inventions weren't too far off being Mazzy Star in all but name, and the link to the single is much appreciated. Now, where the hell's that fourth Portishead album we were promised in "less than 12 years"?

I'm listing to their catalog and everything before this album is all indie rock, and this album very different. I like this album, but its so far removed with 909s and knifey jams from the previous music I just don't know what. Also diamond is a jam.

Any goons going to the Laneway Festival (http://lanewayfestival.com/) in Michigan in September? I'm already set on seeing Sigur Ros, Run the Jewels, Washed Out and Flume. It seems like most of the acts there would fit this thread so I'm wondering if there are any more that I shouldn't miss? I saw the recommendations for AlunaGeorge and I am really digging Attracting Flies. I also have checked out some of CHVRCHES stuff and have liked it. Just need to know who is absolutely worth it live considering there will probably be some overlap since this is just a one day thing. Any recommendations would be great. For content, I don't think I saw the newest Washed Out single Don't Give Up posted yet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lYbBROpZ6o

Born Ruffians have calmly made their way to my top 5 bands over the last few years. Love the evolution of this band. They always have something different but somehow it always seems like the next logical step. There's a reason Warp records noticed these guys. A few off the new effort (Birthmarks) Born Ruffians - Cold Pop Born Ruffians - Rage Flows Born Ruffians - Ocean's Deep

Bronze Radio Return will be in town and tickets are $10. Worth pulling the trigger on that one? Hell parking will likely end up costing more than that because mass transit here cuts out at 11.
