So, I am kind of sick of listening to the same music, over and over again. I need some new stuff to listen to.
What I already like
The Postal Service
Iron and Wine
The Arkells
Rise Against
NoFX
Forever the Sickest Kids
Imogen Heap
alexisonfire
The Black Lungs
It's kind of all over the place, but I guess I like punk and indie.
What I need from you is something new. It can be other punk and indie bands, or maybe something altogether different.

I used to love punk, but moved on to metal. Try listening to some Metallica, Danzig, Dio, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest.

(BTW for those that don't know if you go to music.mtv.com you can find pretty much any official video ever made. After finding a billion live performances and shitty fan-made videos on youtube but not finding the real vids I just linked them from there.)
Lots of names to take it, yeah. I work at an indie station, so there's that. Let me know what you like and I'll be your own personal Pandora.
I'm not a big punk fan, so hopefully I'm not sacrificing my music cred, but I like what I've heard of these guys.
You mentioned Iron and Wine. If you like them, and maybe Simon & Garfunkel, check out Good Old War. They are really, really awesome.
I can't get enough of these guys. And lucky for me they're local to MA so I get to see them play every so often!

Bright Eyes
edit: okay, I think that fixed it... hopefully...
Granted they aren't punk or indy, but you seem to be open to anything, so you never know!
Hell I can go from nappy roots to AC/DC in one sitting

don't you have to make them URLs?

If you do [SPOILERTAG](URL)[/SPOILERTAG] It's not URLing it.
Just space it so its like
[SPOILERTAG]
(URL)
[/SPOILERTAG]
Seemed to work for me, or just manually URL them.
That worked perfectly, thanks.

You can probably let the OP judge for himself, and maybe not be a judgmental tool. If you want to debate the merits of Bright Eyes, you can talk to your cat. This thread is for music suggestions.
Yes, taste is objective and you are the one we should all come to if we have a question about it. I'm sure Oberst is only famous because his shit-ton of fans forgot to ask you if it was okay first.
Going to suggest some Guster, too. Lost and Gone Forever is a classic album.
