Music Banter - View Single Post - favourite alt-indie songs

Lisnaholic · 01-22-2018, 06:41 AM

I'm here because of http://www.musicbanter.com/games-lis...litz-game.html , and I'm wondering why Sneer got zero response to his invitation to post favourites.

I'm hoping this thread might help to clarify what Indie/Alt music sounds like, because afaik it's a genre that defines itself by what it's not, i.e. not mainstream. But if that is the case, why does Sneer have an Oasis song in his list? Surely they're about as mainstream as you can get?

EDIT: Here's a sad factoid: as of right now, this thread has had 2,462 views and yet this post, 12 years after the OP is the first reply ever. Little wonder that Sneer is no longer around.
