A Chronological History Of Epic Indie Angst

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

One for each year pls. I feel this will lead to a socio-cultural roadmap of adolescent alienation from the late twentieth century to the present day, innit. Go back as far as you can. The word "indie" is not as important as the words "epic" or "angst" - bohemian, emo, freak, all these will do fine.

To start with:

1986 - The Smiths - "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"
1992 - Manic Street Preachers - "Motorcycle Emptiness"
2006 - My Chemical Romance - "Welcome To The Black Parade"

GO!
