My beloved rock subgenre! I have an affinity for rock music of the late 90's and early 2000's- the best of the best in these years are indie-rock! Here are my must haves:
My favorite Strokes album! Indie sleaze in its prime!
The Strokes- Room On Fire
The most underrated Monkeys album for sure! I just love every song.
Arctic Monkeys- Suck It and See
So brooding and moody but full of life. I adore Interpol!
Interpol- Turn On The Bright Lights
Wait… they don't love you like I love you… (me talking about Karen O)
Yeah Yeah Yeah's- Fever To Tell
Another Monkeys album! This one is too iconic to not include. My Propeller was the first song I learned to play on guitar!
Arctic Monkeys- Humbug
This album completed the formation of my frontal lobe.
Phoebe Bridgers- Punisher
I wanna be adoreddddd like I adore this album!
The Stone Roses- The Stone Roses
The most special album of the early 2000s. Set the tone for the craziness of that decade!
The Strokes- Is This It
The 90's and Yo La Tengo make for such an indescribable energy, full of emotion.
Yo La Tengo- I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One
Morrissey and The Smiths are a force. English indie rock definers!
The Smiths- The Queen Is Dead
I'm inclined to put every LCD Soundsystem album on this list but I'll hold back…
LCD Soundsystem- Sound of Silver
Meloncholic nostalgia, dance rock, indie pop, everything.
LCD Soundsystem- This is Happening
There are no words for this masterpiece other than perfect. Indie rock royalty!
Radiohead- In Rainbows
Ethereal indie rock. So influential! Love beach house.
Beach House- Thank Your Lucky Stars
I know Weezer has been deemed cringe but surely you've never heard all of Pinkerton if that's how you feel.
Weezer- Pinkerton
Shoegaze foreverrrrrr!!!! I love how this album drowns my ears.
My Bloody Valentine- Loveless
Maybe the most defining Indie-rock record of the nineties!
