STOP THAT

--- Quote from: dessa ---well i started out with bands like "At the drive in", but during that time my tastes have moved to prog rock and back to indie again, even though the line between the two is blurry at most times.

NO. NO IT IS NOT. Prog Rock != indie. at all. The line never gets blurry, ever.  It's like comparing Cheese Whiz and Don Knotts. YOu can never confuse them.

Johnny C:
So you're saying that everything prog and prog-related is entirely seperate from indie, despite the fact that indie really isn't a genre and therefore has no boundaries and if, for example, the Fiery Furnaces aren't slightly proggy I don't know what is?

BLANKET STATMENTS = FOR YES

sp2:
Basically, "indie" is the most pretentious term ever.  You can pretty much apply it to any genre.  By adding the adjective "indie" to any genre, you pretty much say "this genre, but more pretentious."

So.

Indie rock - rock, but more pretentious

Indie pop - pop music, but more pretentious

Indie hip-hop - hip-hop music, but more pretentious

Indie prog - holyshit pretention feedback loop
