in response to ylang.ylang.cocoa:
no i am not saying indie bands are SUPPOSED to go mainstream. i AM saying that some DO get reconized. i mean, hello! modest mouse, death cab for cutie, the decemberists, frou frou, just to name a few ALL classify themselves as indie but still are major.

Yet? What, are indie artists supposed to reach mainstream?
ETA: Those bands that you mentioned (with the exception of Death Cab, may be) are more well known, yes, but not necessarily mainstream. Big difference.

Less Than Jake. They are a great ska band with heaps of talent. They're from Gainesville, FL & they tour 24/7.
