+1 to Regina!
Looks like there aren't a whole lot of people into the indie rock/pop scene here, so I'm guessing most of you won't have heard of the bands I've been listening to this past week. Bands recently getting playlist love:
Feist
Margot & the Nuclear So and So's
Sufjan Stevens
Low
Sunset Rubdown
Why?
I can say that I've been using Spotify a ton over the past month and love being able to listen to hard-to-find albums and artists (at least hard to find in the US). Lots of obscure, but very talented artists -along with all the major groups- are on Spotify and I'm enjoying discovering more stuff to listen to.

Regina is one of the most unique artists out there right now IMO, she does creative and interesting things with her voice and the music she makes. I do listen to a good bit of indie rock. Feist is excellent live, I can't wait for her to come back. Margot &... is pretty good too.

I've probably listened to every one of their albums 100 times over each. I am anxiously waiting for their next album, which is supposedly coming in 2012. Keeping true that they can make a lord of the rings trilogy before a Tool album is made.
To me, although some who don't listen to them will think they are a little dark, but are actually very spiritual, positive and full of self awareness.
I was going to write about 10 more paragraphs, but I'll just stop here.
Spyderco please make a wire clip version of the Manbug/Ladybug!

I'm really liking her new album and am excited to pick up the CD tomorrow. Looks like she's coming to town next month, so maybe I'll see if I can get some tickets.
I am liking Joss Stone's LP1 recently, mainly the song Newborn.
Today I was listening to Ke$ha's album Animal, she put together a fun/entertaining album. I don't expect her next one to be anywhere near as good to listen to.

Waiting on a Squeak and Pingo with a Split Spring!
I am a music nut and produce a little as a hobby on my Mac using Logic. I have a very eclectic taste in music, though.

Cunninlynguists
