For me it was Andrew Bird (who I am currently on a binge of) and Fleet Foxes.

To a lesser extend, Radiohead and the Flaming Lips. Though I mostly just didn't care about them until I was older.

    The main supporting character in Wristcutters being based on the lead singer of Gogol Bordello will never not crack me up.

      Is that movie worth watching? I've never heard of it but it sounds interesting.

      The real Eugene also played a supporting role in Everything Is Illuminated, and there's some Gogol Bordello music in the soundtrack.

        Yes. Among my favorite movies to watch when I'm feeling down.

        I did watch Everything is Illuminated. I don't actually remember if I liked it. It's been a while.

          Everything is Illuminated is an OK movie, it's got its moments but I didn't really like the ending

          spoiler

          where the grandfather kills himself because of survivor guilt (?) and his family becomes observant Jews just because they're genetically Jewish
