I've been getting into some Indie Bands of late
Death Cab for Cutie - Their songs 'Movie Script Ending', 'Expo 86', 'Lack of Colour', 'Title and Registration' to name a few.
I recently heard the band 'Interpol' as well and their songs 'Evil' and 'Next Exit' are top tracks.

THE VELVET UNDERGROUND
Picked up the banana album for about A$23 and have been listening to it regularly. It's got some great tunes on there (notably Heroin, Venus In Furs, All Tomorrow's Parties and Sunday Morning)
Got to get the Gold edition.

Magnolia Electric Co.
I went to a festival this past summer and before we entered it we sat outside drinking wine for a while and a band started to play just on the other side of the fences. "Hey, this sounds like Songs: Ohia!", I said. And then it turned out to be Jason Molina's new band, Magnolia Electric Co. A friend got me a copy of their debut, a live album recorded in Brussels, but I haven't listened to it until today. But it's pretty good.

They had temporarily escaped the factories, the warehouses, the slaughterhouses, the car washes - they'd be back in captivity the next day but now they were out - they were wild with freedom. They weren't thinking about the slavery of poverty. Or the slavery of welfare and food stamps. The rest of us would be all right until the poor learned how to make atom bombs in their basements.

They've been showing a "history of soul music" series by BBC here on TV. I wouldn't say that it made me discover soul but it showed some fantastic live performances by James Brown and I also felt like getting some more into Sly & The Family Stone, Funkadelic and Parliament. So I ordered some CDs right away. 
They also showed some really interesting stuff about Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Aretha, Mary J. and others. Really good documentary series.

If you haven't, I'd really recommend it. It's wonderful and eye opening.
Here's a link that will tell you more about it.

I haven't seen Standing In the Shadow of Motown yet. At least, I don't think so. I saw bits of a Funk Brothers documentary a couple of weeks ago, but I think it was mostly about a reunion concert with lots of guest artists.
