A few hours of scrolling on here today has done more for my taste in music than years and years of Sp*tify algorithms. Highly recommend turning to the PI.FYI community for something fresh.
That in mind here's a couple of bands I really like that I have had to introduce to like 90% of people, I've tried to make sure all of these artists have under 100k monthly listeners on Spoofy:
- Blue Deputy: indie dream rock who will absolutely become my favourite band the moment they release their first EP (they keep promising it's in the works!!!!) favourite tracks: Cypress, New Jersey, Lucky Star (that one's not on streaming yet!)
- Lesbian Bed Death: Gothic Hard Rock/Metal that packs a hell of a punch, they're so much fun. Favourite tracks: Maria, Your Love Makes Everything Worse, She Loves Lilith
- Sean Solomon: He has that one song on tiktok where he plays along to VCR recording of the music video (that I believe he drew and animated himself)/backing track. That one song is Car Crash and it's just quite lovely, really
- The Man the Myth the Meatslab: more acoustic midwest emo I found on TikTok lmao. effortlessly, i feel everything is eerily similar to Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl but imo not in a way that feels like a ripoff, it actually elevates the song for me. It's like a spin on a similar theme from a different perspective
- Chloe Slater: working class, indie, feminist indie rock anthems for disenfranchised people who just wanna dance. favourite songs: Fig Tree, Sucker, Thomas Street
- Life to Experience: this is kind of a memey one bc their album The Texas-Jerusalem Crossroads appears on a tonne of people's cringe/bad album covers lists, but guys. Please. I promise you it is genuinely one of the best Prog Rock albums of all time it rules so hard. Please try it. this is not an original take but it IS a correct take.
- Wax Fang: this band had one song appear in an episode of American Dad of all places, and whoever put it there should have immediately been given a raise and creative control of the entire show. The song they used is called Majestic, and the album it's from, La La Land, is an incredible rock album.

I’ve fallen off the indie band thing for a while now but here are my reccs from 2018:
- For Tracey Hyde (pretty big name but nevertheless)
- Silica Gel (also not sure if they are indie anymore…)
- Night Off
- THORNAPPLE
- Bye Bye Badman
- SURL
- ADOY (as the other person recommended fr)
- Se So Neon (I’m pretty sure they’re a big name now)
- Shadow Community (not sure if their a band actually)
- Mid-air thief
- Parannoul (Also another big name I think)
- Woes (because I’m from Singapore so I have to mention them)
- Bakers in Space (Singapore again)
- Subsonic Eye (Singapore again!)
Lastly a special mention, this band is still active but they’ve changed members completely and deleted their old YouTube videos… I loved their initial songs: KangKang/Kang “I think, it’s weird pose.”:
