indie/emo craze.

[bullwinkle]

has the indie / emo age swept the nation?!

indie definition these days:
the kooks
the klaxons
the killers
notice a trend: THE [insert ***** band name here]. its the same every time.

emo def:
you all know, panic at the disco, fall out flanj, etcetc.

i mean, im usually pretty open minded about things, but this is just annoying. ive always just hated emos full stop, but ive never hated indie music, UNTIL NOW.

what are your thoughts on it? and i dont want to emos posting telling me they dont agree, i dont care, go cut.

EDIT: A LOT OF YOU ARE CONFUSED BY WHAT IM TRYING TO SAY. IM SAYING THIS MAINSTREAM STEREOTYPIAL ***** HAS COME OVER US, AND THEYRE SHROUDING THE DECENT BANDS FROM GETTING GOOD.

If you don't like it, don't listen to it?

I adore indie music. However you are being narrow minded by the bands you listed as "indie". Sure they are bands associated with indie (although Klaxons are technically new rave or whatever) but there are plenty of indie bands around who are lesser known. When I think of indie I think of Babyshambles and the Libertines, doesn't get anymore indie than that really.

So how come you hate this indie music then?

[Ramones]

so do you not like the name of the bands or not like the music? :S and since when were the kooks indie.

[Shinigami]

Because he hates emos :rolleyes:

[bullwinkle]

Werll firstly my opinion tells me ibertines are ****.

Buttt, I wasnt relating to that. I was relating to the commercial side to indie. As in the bands that everyone defines as indie when the true and ctual decent indie bands (eg Yea Yeah yeah's) are being shrouded.

The above does not apply to emo, all emo is bollox.

Just no.

[Shinigami]

*slit slit* :rolleyes:

[uh huh her]

you shouldn't judge people by what music they listen too, narrow minded much?
and the "emo" bands you listed aren't emo/emotive hardcore, they're just what the mainstream called them as they thought it'd make them appeal more.

[benjamin]

I think indie music is pretty damn good myself.

[bullwinkle]

I don't think its bad at all. im talking about STEREOTYPICAL indie bands..

[Shinigami]

What's wrong with Klaxons?

But there is a commercial/mainstream side to every music genre, no need to complain about it - just don't listen to it.

your opinion fails, simply because they're not called the klaxons, they're called klaxons.

+ indie music is the best :]

[bullwinkle]

i don't care if i can spell their name or not. and dont tel me whats good and bad, ever. i only believe myself.

i don't care either, but when you use it as an example that all indie bands begin with 'the', you can't use a band that doesn't but say it does. *Message Removed*

dont call me a fool. crowd follower.

they all do.

[Mario]

fall out flanj,


lol @ that /\
and i prefer indie to like rap or anything

[RedStratocas]

That's really mainstream indie. Non-mainstream indie is the best and most creative stuff in the world right now. "Indie" isnt a real genre anyway, its a label.

no they don't.

crowd follower? haha.

True but now adays there's an indie "sound" that DJs or people will use to describe a new band (to the mainstream).

[Ry]

I don't see what anyone has against emo's etc, Why can't you just accept it and let them do their own thing? I think all this arguing over it is quite silly, I don't have a problem with it, and nah i don't think its sweeping the nation, but its around more in the music industry these days. :)

[brandon]
