The Shins
An amazing indie band. Oh, Inverted World was their first success, and the follow-up Chutes Too Narrow was revered by indie fans and critics alike. They have just released Wincing the Night Away, which while IMO is not quite as good as Chutes Too Narrow, is still a lot better than almost all other music out there today.
It really pisses off people who have been listening to them for quite a while that they're getting so popular with posers who like to latch onto semi-indie bands (the same tragic thing happened with Death Cab for Cutie). The movie Garden State is mostly to blame for this, although shows like the OC and Grey's Anatomy have been ruining good bands for quite some time now.

Loser: So, I'm pretty into Indie stuff right now...
Actual Music Fan: Oh really, what are you listening to right now?
Loser: ...uh... The Shins!
Actual Music Fan: Oh, really? (suspiciously) How'd you hear about them?
Loser: Garden State
Actual Music Fan: (sarcastically) Wow! You're sooo alternative... (walks away)
The Shins
A truly original and forever great alternative/indie band. Albums include Oh, Inverted World, Chutes Too Narrow, and Wincing the Night Away. I suggest listening to "Australia" for starters. Their music is also featured in Garden State, which is a good movie but seriously people, you'd have no idea about The Shins if it wasn't for Zach Braff.
Emily: I love the Shins. Sleeping lessons is such a good song. Yanno?
Derek: Who? WHAT?
Emily: Never mind.
Derek: Oh wait, Sleeping Lessons! That Zune commercial!
Emily: Oh... my God.
Derek: Aren't they in Garden State, too? That movie with Scrubs guy?
The process of Emily's brain imploding on itself thus ensues.
The Shins
A great Indie pop band that expertly crafts wonderful pop songs with a slightly wistful, melacholy undertone. Their 2001 release Oh, Inverted World quickly became a favorite among fans of Indie pop fans, and their second release, Chutes Too Narrow, was also recieved among critics and fans alike.
The Shins are the best band you've never heard.
