5 Contemporary Indie Rock Albums That Every Classic Rock Fan Should Own

2. Secret Wars - Oneida

http://youtu.be/Wj9y8Tt8TJ4 If there was any band that strove to relive the glory days of Velvet Underground/Krautrock-type jams then you can€™t beat a bit of Oneida. In 2009, they had the balls to record and release a 113-minute triple album, itself only the second instalment in a trilogy of albums. Secret Wars is here instead of that record as its one of the more digestible of their albums, especially if you€™re just getting into them. Their frantic hair-raising approach to improvisation sounds less like a musical band and more like a clutter of sirens and alarm bells ringing in full force across the land. But there€™s no denying the immediacy and tightness of the band, which makes Secret Wars rock all the more hard.
