Long time music lover looking for new music.

Now I'm fast approaching the half century mark. I started listen to music as a kid playing my mom's 45. Beatles, Ricky Nelson, Elvis, Frank Sinatra etc. I've never stopped. I moved overseas 7 years ago and don't listen to the radio here. I'm looking for some new music especially Indie Rock.
Here are some that I found that I can recommend. Thanks to all of you that respond in advance.

Some I have found

3 Rounds And A Sound
Bat For Lashes - Two Suns
Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
Brendan Benson - My Old, Familiar Friend
Dan Auerbach-Keep It Hid
Death_Cab_For_Cutie-Narrow_Stairs
Doves - Kingdom Of Rust
Eef Barzelay - Bitter Honey
Elliott Smith-XO and Either_or
The Avett Brothers- I and you and love
Iron & Wine - Our Endless Numbered Days
Jack's Mannequin- Everything In Transit

Monsters of Folk - Monsters Of Folk
My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges
Nada-Surf - Lucky

Florence + The Machine "Lungs." This is going to spin a few times this weekend.
I think I'll print this thread and take it to National Record Day hunt tomorrow.

Nice list Bongofury. That will keep me busy for a while. I have already started on Heyitsmedustys. Good stuff. There is so much good new music coming out on small labels or self produced. It's nice to give them exposure as well. I think a lot more people would like to hear the stuff if they knew how to get it. Heyitsmedusty maybe you could tell them about the download site you told me about. $20 dollars a month is very fair for downloading a lot of new music.
