RIAA Free Holiday Shopping!

Do you want to support good artists and independent labels, but you don't want to indirectly help fund the RIAA's nefarious activities? Never Fear! After hours of compiling statistics from my abacus and deciphering endless amounts of Morse code I have come up with these record labels and their artists that refuse to join the RIAA.

Happy Holidays!

Merge (The Arcade Fire, Spoon, Neutral Milk Hotel, The Magnetic Fields, The Clientele, and about a bazillion other terrific artists)
Matador (Interpol, The New Pornographers, Belle & Sebastian, and again, many, many more)
Kill Rock Stars (The Decemberists, Sleater-Kinney, Xiu Xiu)
Sub-Pop (The Postal Service, Wolf Parade, The Shins, Iron & Wine, Rogue Wave)
Asthmatic Kitty (Sufjan Stevens, Castanets)
Barsuk (The Long Winters, Death Cab for Cutie, John Vanderslice)
Epitaph (Bad Religion, Danger Doom, Youth Group)
Saddle Creek (Bright Eyes, The Faint, Cursive)
Vice (Bloc Party, The Streets, The Stills)
Eighteenth Street Lounge (Thievery Corporation)
Arts & Crafts (Broken Social Scene, Stars, Feist, American Analog Set)
FatCat (Animal Collective, Vashti Bunyan, Mum)
