Recommendations for music podcasts

I like listening to "new music discussion" podcasts, like All Songs Considered, CPR's Sound Opinions, and MPR's Musicheads.
Can you guys recommend other podcasts that either cover, discuss, or play new music? Ideally with a more indie/underground bent and less polite, safe NPR-i-ness.

While not technically
podcasts,
this thread might interest you. Not all of it is 'new' music though much of it is either new or somewhat more obscure to the Mainstream Indie crowd. Then all of a sudden, some well known old favorite pops up.

Also not technically a podcast
Lammo's Roundtable on 6 Music is usually good depending on his guests. Today it was Tori Amos, David Holmes, and David Soul critiquing new tunes.

Alot of the stuff on kexp is pretty good. I'm a big fan of all songs considered myself.

I second this. It's not always stuff you haven't heard yet but worth it for when they do the long discussions every once in a while.

I've had a hard time finding anything that beats KEXP and KCRW's "Song of the Day" podcasts, where you basically have a never ending supply of free MP3s, much of it quite good. Turn off Itunes' default setting to delete these MP3s after a period of time and your music collection will effortlessly grow.
Sub Pop also has a podcast if you're into their stuff.
As for "All Songs Considered," I have their live concerts podcast, but I didn't see other podcasts on their site. Do they have anything else for non-live music?
