it is rock music released on an independent label
take 2 bands and compare...the black keys and yo la tengo
do u see any similarity? no u probably dont. thus it isnt rly a genre
listening to indie doesnt make u unique or cool or special
if u like indie, it makes u just as special as liking classic rock, rap, blues etc...people should stop pretending they like indie rock bands, and listen to what they really like....
kid who doesnt know about music: "yea dude i got this new MM album, i semi like the way it sounds but dont appreciate the rly good hard work put into it. look everyone i like indie rock "
kid who knows his stuff: "w.e dude listen to wat u really like, ur wasting ur own time"

indie is someone who appreciates independant movies and music, they dnt just like mainstream stuff. they like random things that rnt under large labels. scene is someone who is into rock music and has skinny jeans,beads, etc. the two combined make sort of a modern punk rock border line rebellious down to earth dude/chick. think of how sum 41 look and into music like shiny toy guns and what not.

A child who follows what they are told through the 3 divine indie mandates, NME, The mighty boosh and Radio 1.
Generally dressed in awful clothes that are too thing, short or smell like piss. Love to go to concerts where everyband name begins with the word "the" whilst telling everyone else there that "I knew who they were before you ALLL".
A step above scene but a step below chav, however indie kids will have characteristics of both social groups such as stupid fringes and inability to interact with other normal people.
Most likely spotted at a kings of leon concert giving devil horns and saying "omg this is the best shit ever, I wish I could play that bland 2 chord song on my guitar". Whilst us normal kids are pounding your girlfriend and getting her pregnant.
Most likely to insult metal, rap or rock and roll but have no valid reasons as to why it's bad.. generally listen to dull 2 chord songs which all revolve lyrically about being in love with someone who doesn't love you anymore because you took too long to tell them about your love and they are now in a relationship with someone else, most likely your best friend... the girl will be called something stupid like "rose" or "ruby".
Indie kid: You like shit music, I love the Arctic monkeys because nobody has heard of them
Normal: Never of heard of them probably because they're shit?
Indie kid: NOOOOO YOU DON'T GET IT
*2 weeks later*
Indie kids: Arctic monkeys are shit, everyone likes them now.

A young indie man who goes around to all the indie places and hands out, 'indie cred"Indie cred can come in two ways. The first way is to those who are being extremely indie are given cred for their efforts. The second way is, those who wish to have a bit more indie cred can trade something of theirs that is really indie, such as a pair of wayfarers preferably Ray bans, a pair of pointy shoes ect in exchange for cred from the indie man.
Though indie cred works both ways, you can also have indie cred taken off you; this usually occurs if the name of a certain indie thing is unknown, such as a band, or fashion trend. In this occurrence the indie man take something indie off you, as you are not deserving of it because you're not nearly indie enough.
"Your looking damn indie tonight, you'll get some find indie cred"
"You don't know who *insert band name* are? Careful the indie cred man will come and cut the points off your shoes"
