Indie Rock is a kind of Alternative Rock and represents the singers who
do not rely on a label. 'Indie' existing in its name means 'Independent'
inasmuch as its singers use a free way
by not accepting popular trends while they produce their songs. The reason why
I am explaining Indie Rock is not to be regarded as a genre by most people and
to be thought as a kind of Indian music owing to 'Indie' name. Also some think the ones listening Indie Rock
are hippies. But there is no link between listening a genre of music and
information about who we are. As far as you see, there are so much prejudice
about it. According to me, Indie Rock is such a relaxing music that I forget
all troubles and have a rest whenever I listen to some songs based on it. The
bands and the singers such as Franz Ferdinand, The Black Keys, Bon Iver, Birdy,
Kings of Leon you know well and even you love listening are all Indie Rock
members. Their songs are not so noisy at
all. They follow the same routine. Perhaps this is the negative aspect of this
genre. Some people are bored with hearing the same notes and sounds. Even they
claim Indie Rock makes them sleep or gives them headache. If the singers and
bands add several different notes and maybe some various instruments to this
kind, they can change the others' pessimistic thoughts. But the listeners
should remember Indie Rock members do not like being managed and certain rules
about their music. If this genre appeals to you, start listening to Bon Iver
making you relax or Franz Ferdinand energizing . You can also listen Skinny
Love from Bon Iver introducing me with Indie Rock. I am sure it will be liked.
