You guys can keep Shihad it's fine.

I don't think anyone has mentioned Foetus yet and he(Jim Thirwell) is pretty amazing.

edit: Gave Nail a listen in honour of my post and it really is brilliant. Foetus is to Nine Inch Nails as Nine Inch Nails are to Marilyn Manson.

The Grates are on my 'Bands I need to see live before I die' list but the last time they toured, I couldn't afford/never got around to buying a ticket.

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs aren't even that good, let alone the lovely bogan version.

Somebody explain indie music to me. On what level is it enjoyable?

Ideally the appeal is the creative tension of combining the genuinely avant-garde with the genuinely popular.

That's why I said "ideally". It's mostly just fashion these days.

edit: Also, as with any genre, most of it's not going to be very good and because it's appealing to a new set of 16-18 year olds each year there's always going to be a naive "wing" that's prone to trendiness.
