There are some excellent sites out there showcasing contemporary poster design for indie bands, events, and performances. Listed here are just a few that I’ve found.
For posters featuring indie bands, two of the best are The Heads of State and Methane Studios.
Rene Wanner has a Poster Blog and also runs Rene Wanner’s Poster Page with a ton of links. Here’s another - Modern Dog Design Co. (you’ll have to deal with a Flash interface but the poster section is worth it).
I’d love to see more. Post your favorite contemporary poster links in the comments.

Don’t forget GigPosters, a massive online archive of over 40,000 posters and flyers.

Thanks for the link Rob - not sure how that one flew under the radar. I was surprised even to see this page:
