Indie Pop |
|
Indie Pop is a genre of Alternative Rock music that originated in the United Kingdom in the mid-1980s, with its roots in Scottish Post-Punk bands on the Postcard Records label in the early 1980s (Josef K and Orange Juice) and the dominant UK independent band of the mid-1980s, the Smiths. Indie Pop was inspired by Punk's DIY ethic and related ideologies, and it generated a thriving fanzine, label, and club and gig circuit. Indie Pop differs from Indie Rock to the extent that it is more melodic, less abrasive, and relatively angst-free. |
