I think we just derailed this one hard.
I want to name my band Bad Priestess.

Oh man, Pavement, Broken Social Scene and Mountain Goats hits me right in my teens. Does Okkervil River count as well, then?

If we're hauling out Mountain Goats, then I feel comfortable recommending Weakerthans (incidentally, their keyboard player, Jason Tait, also plays in Broken Social Scene).
Canada's polite, whiny answer to Jawbreaker. They sing really emotional songs about cats and curling.

Oh and on the weirder side, Man Man. Especially the album Rabbit Habits

Oh man, haven't heard this song in ages, but it came back to me as soon as I read the title. Thanks!
