because the specific albums you recommended are easily not the best for that artist. the killers suck. and everyone else is cliche and obvious.

Hmm, let's see if I can dig up some rec's that haven't come up much in the music threads around here...

Hip Hop / Rap
---
A Tribe Called Quest - People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm and The Low End Theory
Atmosphere - The Lucy Ford EPs, God Loves Ugly and You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having
Dr. Dre - The Chronic and 2001
Jay-Z - pretty much every album
NWA - Straight Outta Compton

Stuff Indie Peoples Like But I Don't See Mentioned Much
---
Beta Band - The 3 EPs and Hot Shots II
Cake - pretty much every album
Daft Punk - Discovery
Neko Case - Blacklisted
Pavement - Slanted & Enchanted and Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain

Guilty Pop / Rock Pleasures Of Mine
---
Fastball - All the Pain Money Can Buy
Jack Johnson - Brushfire Fairytales and In Between Dreams
Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory (yes, I like this album.)
Lit - A Place in the Sun
Something Corporate - Leaving Through the Window
Jack's Mannequin - Everything in Transit (piano-pop solo project of SC's lead singer, with Tommy Lee on drums)

And a couple albums I've been name-dropping in threads but haven't seen pop up in many other's lists/posts:

Oranger - New Comes and Goes
Junior Senior - D-D-Don't Stop the Beat and Hey Hey My My Yo Yo

And I'll tack on some general love for Rage Against the Machine, Reel Big Fish, Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, No Doubt, Matchbox 20 and Third Eye Blind.

Now that my indie cred is shattered, I'll go in crawl into a corner and listen to some Neutral Milk Hotel so I feel clean again.

I'll take not liking Pavement, an overrated though certainly talented and important indie rock band over liking Matchbox 20, arguably the second worst band of our time, any day.
