Although question not directed at me, IMO for perfect indie pop-there can only be one winner-Belle and Sebastian. That is if you can call them indie pop. Maybe folk pop is more appropriate.They are really back on form too with latest album.Had to laugh at McFly reference though-you have ruined that song for me now!

oh, on the spot now! yeah I'd absolutely agree with Jairzinho Belle & Sebastian do perfect indie pop. I suppose now that I think about it it's hard for any band to be all round perfect indie pop but bands that have had perfect indie pops songs for me would be the likes of Super Furry Animals, Lightning Seeds, Grandaddy, Lemonheads, Dogs Die in Hot Cars, Boy Least Likely, Coral, Josh Rouse, Weezer and more recently Islands. My genre radar isn't the greatest but i think I can name at least one song from those bands that I would consider perfect indie pop.

Agree with a lot of those Comet-especially SFA, Lemonheads, Boy Least Likely, Weezer and Islands. But Dogs die in hot cars-who are they?what a gret name for a band-on the name alone I have to check them out.Actually I see you can download on allofmp3.com so will do so later when I get home.......

Actually I think we have overlooked the best indie pop band of recent years-The New Pornographers-3 consistently fantastic albums-I just hope they visit these shores soon.

Definitely check it out, they don't get much attention but their debut Please Describe Yourself is a real favourite of mine, they're finishing off their second album at the moment, I'm really looking forward to it!

Hey Comet.Checked out the Dogs die in hot cars CD last night.On initial listening I liked it-a real mix of sounds from ska to pure downright pop-the opening 5 seconds even reminds me of the National. Am quite looking forward to listening to it again this evening actually-have a few of the tunes running around my head today-cheers for the heads up...
