The slow stuff.

[caLLous]

I'm on the hunt for slow music, such as Anathema - Anyone, Anywhere (and most of their catalogue, actually); Feeder - High (acoustic is sublime). Sort of ballads, I suppose... If anyone knows of an artist/band that does this sort of thing primarily, please let me know!

Not The Verve, Oasis, etc etc blah, I want to expand my horizons!

Don McLean - Vincent.

Check out Three Mile Pilot. Awesome slow, complex indie.

If your looking for slow, then

Josh Rouse
Readymade
Turin Brakes

otherwise, bands a bit more like Feeder,

Crashland
Third Eye Blind (Motorcycle Driveby rocks!)
Nada Surf
Fountains of Wayne

All worth listening to!

 

[BrassMonkey]

Turin Brakes

Absolutely fantastic in my opinion, one of my favourites. Ether Songs and The Optimist are both class albums.
