December 20, 200915 yr Was curious and listened to some tracks i didn't know from here before. GODLIKE. I'M TURNING 80% INDIE NEXT YEAR.
December 20, 200915 yr Author LOL. Yes tis a good list. Pitchfork are nice for keeping up with new indie music. I don't really read their reviews much anymore, just follow their news section / forkcast (which posts lots of mp3's / good music videos). A lot of people think they're snobby, but that's really just certain reviewers. Just as a music resource it's a good site.
December 22, 200915 yr I really don't get 'Stillness is the Move'. I like everything else in the top 10, though.
December 22, 200915 yr I know and love about 30 of these tracks, mostly the pop ones. I'm so BEHIND with indie music these days :(
