Hey guys! I love comics just as much as I love music and I was wondering if you guys were into indie music. If so, let's talk about who you do and don't like, albums that you think are great and all of that great stuff!

When talking about music Jet Set Radio always counts.

The Smiths are constantly on my rotation.

Neil Gaiman's Death pops in at 3:02 of this video. Pay no mind to the name of the band....

I Dig Grass Window, in the indie "sounding genre" but if you are meaning indie as in independent music there are too many bands too list! :P

Those are definitely indie bands! Most of 'em have a folky sound but they're not signed to massive labels, and they make great music!

Personally, that's why I love indie music. There's tons of smaller sub-genres that can be classified as indie music!
