Just downloaded bloc party and the libertines albums. And they are exeedingly average, i was reeling with anticipation after all the hype they received. I was impressed, but far from blown away.
Best track - liberitines - boys in the band.

The only indie music I listen to are unsigned local bands, I really have no idea what the national indie "scene" is all about.
Signature by rubah. I think.
meat puppets
wait
your just wrong the bloc party are a very clever and entertaining band, libertines are overhyped though.
Your sig is too hilarious and witty, thus i have removed it to protect the minds of all forum goers

The Walkmen are good.
Indie sucks.
I'd expand, but there really isn't anything about it I do like, so writing out what I dislike would be tiresome.

I actually quite like bloc party. the libertines are shocking though. My rule is if it has a "the" in front of the band name, then they are more than likely going to be average rubbish.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion,
I watched seabeams glittering at Tanhauser Gate.
All these moments will be lost, like tears in rain.
Time to die.
except for The Walkmen, who are good.
I gave up on indie long ago. Used to ADORE Oasis and Blur and the like, but modern day indie bands just seem to whack out monotonous dirges, or unoriginal tripe.

I don't really care much for indie bands. I'm much more interested in traditional world music.
Bloc Party - Yuck! They have two good songs, which were on the free EP I got with the album.
Libertines - A couple of good songs, yes. Death on the Stairs!
Kaiser Chiefs - I'm working on them.
The Killers - No idea.
Idlewild - Liking them so far.
Bright Eyes - *hugs*
Kasbian? Kaspian? I don't know!
NOBODY WILL EVER BE AS GOOD AS BLUR.
Kaiser Chiefs and Bright Eyes are current favorites of mine.
I saw Bloc Party at Coachella and they were decent.
Kasabian are probably the best of the bunch atm. Libertines are so so, Pete Doherty, whilst being talented, IS overhyped...although strictly speaking is Ex Libertines. The greatest Guitar Band there ever was were the Stone Roses TILDE!!1
EDIT: Razorlight & Snow Patrol are also pretty good.

Oh yeah, Snow Patrol!
Indie Lindy, you're needed in this thrread!
Kaiser Chiefs' buzzcocksandgreatescapeblurness is helping them out.
In the meantime, let's get back to MSP!
Closest thing to Indie I listen to is TMBG, and I think they stopped being Indie a long time ago when they signed with Elektra. I could be wrong though.
