Just because I'm a little concerned about the American bias to the aformentioned lists.

Good call on Teenage Fanclub and The Smiths.

What is this a list of, the "best" Indie bands? Or a sampler of different styles?

I hate these subjective vs. objective issues.

I suppose you couldn't leave out a band like Interpol, but do they qualify?

And I'd vote as well for Sparklehorse. They consistently put out good albums. And perhaps American Football, they've got a pretty unique sound.

Oh, and based purely on personal opinion, I have to put in votes against Neutral Milk Hotel, The Decemberists, and Belle & Sebastian.

Ooh and I forgot, Godspeed should totally be on there.
