more and more i start to see indie music start to rise from the depths of the underground ..and start to turn mainstream ...ic more people liking coldplay , common , and any specific such of indie type music ....more people are getting bored of the same old music ..... I personally think this will revolutionize the way Music is in the upcoming generations .......i even myself cant keep up with this movement in music .
Soo what do you guys think , will there be such a change in the way music is today .... i think so . |

Actually, Coldplay's first label was Fierce Panda, which is an independent record label. Now they are handled by Parlophone (in the UK) and Capitol (in the US), which are both part of the EMI Group, which is a record label; so they're not indie anymore, but they were at one time. Remember, indie and alternative are not the same thing. It's unlikely, but possible for a mainstream band to be handled by an indie record label. |

But in the more common sense of the word, that's not what indie implies. Besides which, the only decent radio station here plays "everything alternative" but the most obscure things they play are the flaming lips and the shins |

But I don't see why it's so bad for an indie band to go mainstream. Take Death Cab for Cutie for example. Really talented guys in that band, but they used to not be manistream. Now that they've gained exposure over the years, they're becoming more and more popular. Therefore, kids who used to listen to really crappy music could open their ears to an awesome band. |
