C is a bad letter.
C is for Cold War Kids, a quartet outfit out of Southern California, who make really sloppy indie soul blues whatever. Nathan Willett is the lead singer, and he has a face like a brick wall. They like to bang on pots and mason jars and break their cymbals and not keep time. Their debut album is Robbers & Cowards. I don't have much more to say about them, but they're kind of important to show that indie rock isn't all just bullshit crooning.

Cap'n Jazz. Oh, a wonderul little introduction to another messy band, this time out of Chicago. It's the first band out of several dozen from the Kinsella family tree, which would go on to spawn Maritime, Owen, Joan of Arc, Owls, Make Believe, American Football, The Promise Ring, yeah.
cap'n jazz - little league.
Cat Power. A girl with a guitar who had the cover art of her album be the guts of some animal. Hardcore shit, right? She's pretty famous, and she did a good covers album. She's written a billion songs and they're all over the web. Guh. Pretty cuuuuute. Every girl who knows how to play C, F, and G on guitar will try to copy her from now on in.
The Greatest Cat Power
Calexico. I don't know why they're considered indie. It's a band out of Tuscon that has its own mariachi band, but not in a stupid ironic way. Super tight band, Carried To Dust is a p good album, but went underlooked in 2008. Oh well.
