The Genre

• Closely linked with Alternative• Originated from the UK in the 1980’s• Stemmed from the genre grunge• Became a mainstream genre in the 1990’s to identify

those acts that retained and outsider and underground prospective

• In the 200’s as a result in the music industry and growing importance of the internet a lot of indie rock acts began to enjoy commercial success

• Is It really Indie anymore???
