Independent or "indie" isn't a genre of music or a 'certain sound'. It's an expression for musicians that are DIY or are signed to a smaller label[2] I thought that was understood until I started talking to people LOL!

This is a revolution in rock just like punk was when it came. eather you listen a different kind of rock and don't get the meaning of the complete rock scene. or you listen to House, R&B etc. in wich case you don't have a right to talk about indie as to mainstream or "fashion". I admit A few bands are to mainstream and produce shit, but the complete genre is great. guess you didn't search long enough mainstream is displayed first, so you probably think that's the whole genre. If you will explore the complete genre you will be surprised by some of the bands.

i don't understand how this genre has become so popular...imo the bands are often interchangeable (their vocals and riffs sound pretty much the same) and in many ways the scene is as much a fashion style as it is a musical genre. just my opinion of course, and similar things could be argued to be the case for the genres i like.

well i thought indie bands are regarded as such because they are freed from any kinds of genre labeling and stuff

so do all genres, and it's got its amazing qualities as well. I for one find it quirky and even innovative (though not ALL the time). If it is boring, you may not be giving it a chance to speak to you. Anyways, generalizing is for general stores. If you want your musical opinion to be respected, consider all sides of the argument before banding together to replicate terse comments in an attempt to validate your frustration with something.

Classical music? An ENORMOUS amount of work goes into it, but the lot of it sounds the same unless you listen to it constantly. Lack of singing can be boring and frustrating, except with some compositions that are simply divine. Emo? Good effort and lots of energy, songs CAN be pretty interesting but most lead back to love and death, and in reality it's not traditional singing. Still, for many angst-ridden people, emo is what gets them through tough times, and there's nothing wrong with that. Classic rock? Was one of its kind, I'll give it that-- but overrated. I can safely say that, because everyone knows of these bands, but most people only know a couple songs and think they love the band. Alternative rock? Well, for Coldplay and all them, I think they're cool, but there are oodles of 90's alternative rock bands that sound relatively the same on the surface. Yet a lot of people adore them. The point is, though perhaps wordily represented, that indie may have its faults,but (one more)

For those bashing indie rock, consider the following. Rap? It generally involves sampled sounds and NO singing talent or effort, and the lyrics are commonly extremely sexist, vulgar, and arrogant. But there are some rappers with lyrics that matter. Dance? Build-ups can be way too long, entire songs can be repeated several times within themselves, clubs use it to promote mass idiocy and mindless drunk grind dancing, not to mention sex sex sex, and again, there is often no singing talent. However, there are good vocal trance artists, which make beautiful dance music. Modern radio rock? Stuff like Nickelback? Gets way too much respect for saying the same crap as radio hip hop, only with guitars. Generic and 50% screaming. Although some good rock bands come on the radio. R & B? Good singing, but a lot of people find it too slow and boring. Still, good singing. Hip-hop, just pop with less scruples and more electronic shit. Though every once and awhile a worthwhile message.

The only reason it has a specific sound is because people took it and ran with it and now it's a dull generic lifeless fad, hopefully it'll pass.
