| My favorites are Radiohead, Sleater-Kinney, Sonic Youth, Rasputina, and Belle and Sebastian.
I found Radiohead after picking up The Bends after hearing so much about the band without actually every having listened to them.
With Sleater-Kinney and Sonic Youth, I found them because of iTunes recommendations, and quickly bought The Woods and Daydream Nation respectively.
I discovered Rasputina because of two factors: my cello playing and the fact that one of their songs was on an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
I found Belle and Sebastian on an iTunes playlist entitled something like "Harry Potter Indie Rock" and was immediately hooked. |
