Most of Indie Rock is a 60's ripoff. Nothing new and simply overrated. You can keep your other bullshit fads, but Chucks are for everyone -- stop claiming it as your own.
hello people... if music is good, it'll get discovered (you would hope) but a band that makes it to the big time, in my personal opinion, should not be then forever excluded from the "indie" genre
Stop argueing about the term indie, all this guy has done is create a video celebrating rock guitar music, which we all must agree is becoming more sparce.
you have great taste in music! not sure about coldplay though lol but tbh there is no proper definition for an indie band so they can be whatever you want them to be
yea I agree people say indie is this or that , come on !! just listen to the fuckin music and in joy the taste ! stop talking shit and go talk shit to someone face to face !
for me...indie its like...good shoes, the maccabees, burn ruffians, tokio police club, fanfarlo, the joy formidable, broadcast 2000, bombay bicycle club, art brut, cajun dance party, the rakes...and more¡]¡¡¡¡¡ i fucking luv indie¡¡
Here's a good one from THE USA. The band is called Arrivederci AKA AVDTHEBAND and the song is called Do it Again. YouTube > "AVDTHEBAND Do it AGAIN" Download the song on iTunes and Amazon
indie stands for Independent music is a term used to describe independence from major commercial record labels and an autonomous, some people mistake the term with a genner of music wich is totally out of place, If the band does their own music both lyrics and tune, then its an indie band, so stop bitching bout it
The American music industry needs to wake up and start marketing more of these bands instead of peddling the same old crap. I'm sick of hearing the same reinventions of songs with the same stupid themes on the radio. I'll go on tour with any of these bands anytime they want.
saying indie/ alternative is like saying rap/hiphop its the same thing. alternative is a genre of its own. you have alt rock, alt metal, alt punk, there are alot of dif types of alternative
I know people say Indie means individual label and "mainstream" bands like U2 isn't indie..bla bla.. I think indie is a bit.. more creative? and with a good melody, you know, quality. Or, well it's not just: I love youuuuu, don't leave meeee. and then with this annoying beats and silly pop-ish sound. Indie is music that falls in between pop and rock and some other genres. I might be describing alternative now.. but most indie music eventually end up like alternative once it's a bit famous anyway
@Helcaloth To me, Indie isn't like proper rock. It is a lighter version of it if you get what I mean. Bands like Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend and Kasabian, to me are Indie (Alternative), so I agree with you. I don't think Coldplay (I hated Coldplay before it was cool :) ) and U2 are Indie.
I agree, but when Indie first originated, Indie was individual label, yet now since the first indie bands with individual labels all had a distinctive sound from all the other rock sub-genres at the time and appealed to many people.. When bands wanted to sound like the one's considered as Indie, they aimed for that similar sound. Now with so many Indie bands, they all have such a similar sound.. Indie..kind of evolved to having it's own "sound". You get me?
