[emilyinbetweener]

Skinny Love is from 2008

[hyphentated]

[krathox2]

Please check at least the release date of the songs. I have been listening 'Map of the Problematique' since 2006.

[nipkin1234]

Broken Bells kind of sound like The Shins

[Figgzt]

@nipkin1234 uh... it's cause the main singer of The Shins, James Mercer, is the main singer for Broken Bells.

[aimoony007]

Skinny Love is from 2008 mate!

[papayamaya21]

These are really great choices! Lately I have been looking for new music and I was wondering if anyone could recommend some indie rock songs and bands. That would be awesome thanks.

[ApRiL3706]

is indie rock the same as alternative rock?

[cmhonsu33]

good music but  where were the arctic monkeys and kasabians new tracks.

[UltimateRpGx]

Struggling to see why The Maccabees aren't on here. They're an awesome Indie band

[oshizzitzjj]

i never heard of any of these bands except for the strokes. imma start checking out ther music. thanks for making this list. it really helped me out... ((:

[musicdork4ever]

I LOVE THE STROKES!!!

[AdamChelseaFC96]

10 mile stereo is quality

[Groblinfull]

broken balls would be a better name

[MultiContrarian]

Good songs, not from 2011 though... Broken Bells is 2010

[mcrettable]

Hah I have all these songs without knowing they were the best :P

[marciobree]

Ups, my bad. I saw the song title, right on the beginning of each song. Sorry.

[marciobree]

The song titles are missing. How can I download them?

[fuccyou22kkk]

thanks these actually are pretty good

[ThebeMagugu]

This video was so epic, I just gave birth...

and I'm a boy :/

[jisusumartes1]

The Stroke rules!

[dramaticpickles]

aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh... I love Codex

[SimmyRx]

I'm glad you put MOTP on there. Even if it is from Black Holes and Revelations, it'll get more people listening to it! It has some of my favourite lyrics of all time on it :)

[NinjaSquirrelXD]

Map of Problematique is an old song as it's on the album Resistance which I got two years ago

[josevellozo]

@NinjaSquirrelXD Map of Problematique belongs to Black Holes and Revelations

[tehArbinator]

Brand New has been my favorite since god knows how long. its nice to see somebody actually appriciates them; even if this song isnt from 2011.

[Zormac]

God, I didn't know that song "October". Pretty awesome!

[snikslife123]

[filozofumben]

Last dinasours, crap

[blake182wyatt]

Dood, I believe you but my tommy gun didnt come out in 2011...more like 2003. and skinny love was more like 2008, or something?

[kurdishhPRIDE]

ahhh muse <3 good on ya brandon :D

[mangoopolis69]

I feel as though Local Natives and Young the Giant deserve to be on here. Then again Local Natives aren't exactly 2011, but Young the Giant got really famous this year, so maybe just them.

[Puschix]

ein paar echt gute Songs mit bei (german language ^^)

[kwf1156]

Dude, the strokes are very well known, and not that good. They do have an indie sound tho..

[BrianHotChiliPepper]

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS NUM 1 and this was made on my birthday

[Shagg3223]

@BrianHotChiliPepper you have the gayest name ever

[anthrax1991]

Most of Indie Rock is a 60's ripoff. Nothing new and simply overrated. You can keep your other bullshit fads, but Chucks are for everyone -- stop claiming it as your own.

[nickaaary]

do you have anything similar to two doors cinema club? i absolutely love music like that!

[123werewolf123]

Radiohead fo sho! :)

[SuperSoulraper]

i'm looking for ish to sample any one else

[monsterboy857]

[Tobiasoaz]

I was looking for this kind of music for SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long, but i didn't knew what to type in the search bar to find this... AND NOW I FOUND IT!!! I will write down every single artist in this vid and my thank to you is eternal!! =D

[gallegalle007]

Rubik-city and the streets

[koreicupcake94]

[thesmashedcrayon]

Uh where is two door cinema club?

[papiangel09]

[sumayacoldplay]

bon iver <333

[downwegoagain]

Bon Iver is one of my favourite artists, but Skinny Love came out on For Emma, Forever Ago, which was released in 2008, the album Bon Iver, Bon Iver, came out in 2011, which did not contain Skinny Love.

[AbercrombrieeFreaak1]

the national reminded me of coldplay.

[mirsarie]

[TheBeckyOfficial]

BON IVER-Yay! There the best :)

[L32P0U]

Ugk!! I love Bon Iver! What A Genius!! You have good taste in music.. I know most of these bands except three.. :).. Oh and Under Cover Of Darkness is one of my top 5! nice!!

[hipsterhaze]

I know most of these bands. I pretty much love them all. Especially Broken Bells. That band is so mezz the foxes don't know what to do with it.

[prettyboiJustin]

beach house sounds like gorillaz plastic beach album

[Backyardrastlexx]

Soon as October started playing I knew I was gonna like this list.

[jamesb345]

Some of these songs aren't from 2011?

Still, fantastic choices on their own. The strokes new album is class, some is as good as their early stuff.

[brandonluco]

@jamesb345 Correct, But some people these days look for new music but you gotta realize that there is some really good old music out there, just opening some new paths for the people just getting into Indie Rock and Alternative Rock :)

[Dest74]
