God dammit. I hate this tag and the idiots on last.fm who think it represents everything under the sun.

Indie is not a genre, 'cause you can't tell a band is Indie by just listening. Indie is a style, the way how a band develops. We shouldn't forget that Indie comes from Indiependent, Indiependent from mainstream music and independent from the big labels. So my personal point of view is that Indie is related to a the band's relation to it's fans. As long as a band decides about ticket prices and merch itself, it can be Indie. And as long as a band doesn't forget where the band members come from, from among the crowd. As I said, my point of view.

The very minute a band is within the reach of the masses it stops being "Indie" per se. The only musicinas who can claim to be indie after commercial success are the ones who own their own record labels. IMAHO. But nowadays it's "cool" to be indie so eveything gets labeled that way. Wouldnt be surprised if someone labels Pink Floyd Indie

@GingaPlayer1 I think there is something we can do if we join our forces, I'm trying to erradicate the indie tag little by little in my group [url=http://www.lastfm.es/group/Seek+and+Destroy+Indie+Tag]Seek and Destroy Indie Tag[/url]. As far as I know, if a significant number of last.fm users tag the same band with an alternative tag, maybe we can move the indie tag from the top...it's just an experiment :) Anyone who hates this tag is welcome to the group ;)

well now it's called indie, but before it was Britpop which started out with bands such as Oasis, The Stone Roses, The Smiths, Blur, Pulp... and there's nothing we can do about it

these bands aren't indie. they're what the corporate record labels have put in a neat and tidy package and stuck a big sticker on it saying 'indie.' the killers aren't indie, they're signed to vertigo i believe

one day I'll get Vanessa Hudgens on the indie tag and just kill it for good. People just need to stop using this tag, it doesn't mean anything.

the definition of Indie: 1.) A band that is not signed onto a label (the best definition) 2.) A genre created by a relatively "independent" idea that certain unique artists fit into a class of their own... You people need to stop stating what's indie or not. After all, It's a loosely used term only the INDIvidual can label. Some think modern folk is indie, some think modern electronic music is indie, and some think even "emo" (or melodic music) is indie. it's up to you to decide... Personally, because of the recent broadness of opinion on what exactly fits this genre, I think we just need to do away with labeling anything indie. At least then people would stop leaving stupid comments on social music cites.

EmileBorel likes the wiki .. and is ashamed that he used the tag sometimes, too .. Is everyone using it because it is so easy to not classify the bands into "real" genres? Do we need more well specified genres to describe the music we listen to?

Wtf, indie isn't a genre. Radiohead, The Killers, Death Cab...they are alternative rock bands.
