These are tough days for indie bands

auteur55 [Edit] [Delete] 02:51, 4 May '11

Glasvegas in at 10 then out of the top 40 in one week

Young Knives in at number 80 with a bullet

Guillemots in at 30 something then out the next week

Even Radiohead struggled to go top ten

Looks like the Vaccines are shifting a few units but just wait till that 2nd comes out and disappears without a trace.

Can any guitar band sustain a long term career in today's conditions? Not from the looks of it.
