Is indie a style or status?

Marcelle Vanlith: indie is what you make itpeople have been killing indie latley though..

Cuc Gire: style

Idell Syed: neither.

Elvin Mannheimer: I think its a style

Codi Manchel: Indie is a classification.Spoon is Spoon. I feel like to call them something trite like "indie" cheapens them.

Shan Lanen: It is my belief that "Indie" has been a misnomer since sometime in the mid 80's....when the commercial music industry decided that there was profit in rebellion and began to co-opt the outward labels of the Indie scene....skinny black jeans, pointy toes boots, black leather jackets....and dress the mass produced pop princes and princesses from their music factories in the garb of the actual rebellious youth.When people began to refer to U2 as an Indie band, I knew that the real era of independent, different, original music was over. We have been subsumed by the corporates.Indie exists now only in tiny enclaves...in suburban pubs and garages where! small crowds gather to listen to those without a recording deal and a management company.And as soon as these kids get the opportunity to sell out, they do so.

Vern Serratos: Indie is a culture.The music, the clothes, the style, etc

Coleman Deliberato: status

Jon Bergmeier: def a style
