Modern Indie

Modern indie rock was what was left in the underground when the grunge and punk movement broke into the mainstream during the 1980s. The term “indie” was used to describe independent record labels and has a similar sound to alternative rock, yet it holds more of an underground and outsider perspective. Since its conception, indie rock has evolved as a genre, picking up pop and acoustic elements while retaining its independent status.
