If you love indie music like I do, you know very well that there have been some exceptional musical debuts over the course of the last two years. We'll be including music from 2008 and 2009 here, and narrowing it down to the three that I'm going to mention will be a difficult task.
This article will only focus on three of the best debuts during this period, which will naturally be very challenging. There's been such a great amount of new music during these last two years, and many exceptional new bands will be left out of this conversation.
The three articles that I choose to discuss are all wonderfully crafted albums that all music lovers should listen to. If you've never heard of these bands, you're in for a treat as soon as you do.
First one on my list is Bon Iver's For Emma, Forever Ago. This is one of the best albums I've heard in a long time. The raw emotion conveyed on it and the slow, catchy hooks are truly unique.
This is an album that consists of some great songs from beginning to end. Standout tracks like "Flume", "Skinny Love", and others quickly became indie rock staples after the album was released.
The second debut that makes my list is Vampire Weekend's self titled debut. This album came out in late 2008, and it marked the birth of a truly original and sophisticated band. With influences that span from classical to world music to indie rock, this is one of the best bands in modern music.
Lastly, Fleet Foxes came out with a debut in 2008 that was exceptional. The best way to describe the band's music is a mix of bluegrass, indie rock, and barber shop quartet. I know that's hard to explain, but their rich melodies will pull you in on first listen.
These are all instant classics in my mind, and worthy of repeated listens.
