Indie music anyone?

Can anyone offer up some good indie bands?
I already love:
Apples in stereo
The new pornographers
Cake
and The Decemberists.

Neutral Milk Hotel are really good; they're among the originators of indie rock.

Also, how could I forget, and I can't believe nobody has mentioned, Arcade Fire!

One of the best albums of all time: Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco.

And while it may be stretching the boundaries of the "indie rock" genre, I also really like MGMT and Santigold.

Edit: Also, Modest Mouse is pretty good. And, as others have said, Death Cab, the Shins, the Decemberists, and Radiohead are all great.

Edit Edit: And Regina Spektor.

Edit Edit Edit: And Sufjan Stevens.
