+ 1

Not sure they are Indie, though... Anyway, the term is no longer what it used to be. I don't know what it means nowadays.

Huge fan of Interpol here so I'd say check Specialist or Public Pervert. The New has a beast bass line but the song is kind of weird.

+1 for interpol but they are basically a joy division tribute, which I happen to love anyway.
Also Time and how ya like me now by The Heavy, great underated bassplaying and drumming
