That's stange, Galaxie 500's On Fire is categorized as Dream Pop while Today is Indie Pop... that's too bad, I like On Fire better.
Time to listen to the Go Betweens then I guess !

I'll give it about a week so anybody interested can listen to all of the records they haven't yet, if anybody has specific suggestions for when this should start I'm open to suggestions. _________________

Yeah, I second this list not being very indie pop. It's mainly because, for whatever reason, RYM thinks that chamber pop is a subgenre of indie pop. And that's why stuff like The Colour of Spring appears here. For a more accurate list, uncheck the checkbox "+ subgenres" and then you should get nothing but indie pop.
EDIT: Also include twee pop

I think next genre elimination we should pick a genre that's easier to define than "indie pop" like punk or prog rock or something
