If I were asked to name 3 bands I really favour, within a certain Indie genre...
I would name these: (saving the last for the best...)
3)
The Fiery Furnaces: Alternative 120%. And mainly hilarious... It's a very specific kind of music

I warned you..
YouTube - The Fiery Furnaces- "My Dog Was Lost But Now He's Found"
(don't look at the idiotic clip... not theirs)
YouTube - Fiery Furnaces - Blueberry Boat
Again: clip not theirs...
2)
Pavement: Might have mentioned them before, but who cares.. They have to be in this post..
YouTube - Pavement - Spit On A Stranger
YouTube - PAVEMENT - Summer Babe
1)
Modest Mouse: One of the best bands I know. Alternative, but good. Really good..
YouTube - Modest Mouse - Dashboard
YouTube - Modest Mouse - Ocean Breathes Salty
You might have noticed in the second song by Pavement: he wears a Tshirt stating "the black crowes". He's a musician promoting music: might be interesting to look into that... It's a band blues-inspired... Look into it! (
YouTube - The Black Crowes - A Conspiracy)
