Indie, like Hip-Hop (alternative & underground) seems a bit on the slide -here's hopin' i'm proven wrong!! Geting really hard to distinguish between the qualities of Indie & Electronica, well and truly meshed after the mid-late 00's burst of DFA, LCD, Knife, Hot Chip, Gang Gang Dance, An.Col, Black Dice, Rapture, MGMT etc. Most of these boundaries have eroded beyond recognition. I like the way music does that to us!!!
Some great releases here, but very few of these are Indie, in the sense of what would have been defined as Indie only a couple of years ago. It's Indie-ish!!

Listened to this more than any other album over the course of the year. It came out in Jan, so it's time tested! Popular, yes! Nevertheless, a stunning follow up to 'Strawberry Jam' and Lennox's solo 'Person Pitch' (as Panda Bear).
