About this playlist
It wasn't just Natalie Portman's character in the movie Garden State whose life was changed by The Shins' lush, playful guitar pop. Plenty of 21st-century indie bands would follow suit, filtering their dark, provocative tales through delicate blends of poignant, pastoral folk (Fleet Foxes), wistful baroque pop (Death Cab for Cutie), and buoyant, intricately layered indie rock (Arcade Fire).
