One, such as a studio or producer, that is unaffiliated with a larger or more commercial organization.
Indie isn't one type of music. Its a label given to groups regardless of genre. You can have indie-goth, indie-rock, indie-hiphop even.
But don't forget J-Goth! :P

I personally switch back and forth between dark, moany stuff and industrial, or industrialish-electronica, a lot of it german, and some good dark metal, depending on my mood.
I'm personally extremely sad with the world our kids are growing up in where you buy "punk"/"goth"/"whatever-core" styled clothing and listen to the boy band known as Good Charlotte or new style R&B. It just makes me feel dirtied like its a personal attack on my tired black heart. :(
My wifes been researching music for her novel and been looking up various genres. And I've come to the conclusion that music of almost all genres have gone down hill for the last 20 years.

It depends on your taste, and if, as you seem to, you have a similiar taste to me, it has. Or rather, the mainstream has: there are bands in all genres that are as good as those genres ever were at their mainstream peak. Sure, I'd have loved to have grown up in a time when Judas Priest contested the charts with Siouxsie and the Banshees as the face of scary teenage music, but there a whole load of really good stuff festering away in the underground.
Even if there are few things more glummifying than sitting at the back of a rock club watching yet another shitty local band pound out a 'The Used' cover and realise that absolutely no-one there has probably even heard of most of your favourite bands.

yeah. you're right. there are still some last bastions of hope, but theres definately a decline in the Country and R&B scene. :P
You mention Siouxie and that reminded me of something! I went to a Front Line Assembly Concert one Halloween about 6 years ago in San Francisco with my wife and we saw them and Switchblade Symphony. That was pretty good stuff.

Very awesome.
You could say that SatB were the band that got me into goth. They're one of my mum's favourite bands, and one of the ones I liked the most in my 'parents vinyl plundering' stage of musical listening..
