What is this genre of music called? (please help!)?
I like bands like The Kooks, The Wombats, the Pigeon Detectives, etc. Any idea what genre they fit into?
Please don't be rude. Music taste isn't something to have a war about. (:
Thanks, guys. (:

Indie, and the kooks are utterly beautiful, (their music's incredible too, lol.)
The pigeon detectives are wonderful, the wombats the same.
I adore indie music, have you heard of the maccabees, also Death Cab For Cutie are incredible, and their lyrics are so beautiful and actually show talent. There's a lot more I could reccommend but then I'd end up rambling.(:
Search Death Cab For Cutie, and play a few of their songs, they have a lot, by a lot, I really do mean A LOT! Some of them are not as good but look around a bit and you'll find that they are amazing. (:

EDIT: haha I realised that you've already heard of them. xD They're great, aren't they. I miss you too and my email thing broke so I couldn't reply to your email. :(

Indie- I love the Kooks- his voice is super hot. You might really like Thirteen Senses as well.

Yeh, these are all Indie,
Itunes puts all these bands under 'alternative'
but if you were talking about them to most people, i recon they'd class it as Indie!
good choice by the way : D

indie, but popular indie
indie by definition is independent, but all of those bands are signed to major labels and have huge fan bases, yet they'd still be considered indie
