But how will I negatively skew the community rating on critically acclaimed indie rock??

I really liked the Kill Your Idols documentary. It was on Netflix a few years ago. Opened my eyes to more protopunk and no wave music, since I only really knew, of the people featured in the doc, Sonic Youth and Gogol Bordello at the time.

Hope this show's in Heaven, 'cause God loves a terrier

In the middle of The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer. Then maayybee I'll actually get into Gravity's Rainbow

"Drive" Incubus

"Telephone Line" Electric Light Orchestra

"Hold On" Tom Waits

It's not post-apocalyptic though, it's just dystopia. And to be fair, we haven't seen much of the badlands itself, just the relative safety of the Fort. And I think everything looks sufficiently "dirty," the area where the kids trained and the city place Sunny goes to were not gorgeous like the poppy fields.
