The British Indie Scene
Is it just me or is there very close to nothing worth listening to at present in British indie music (with the few obvious exceptions)? What are all these RUBBISH bands popping out of absolutely nowhere? Why would anybody feel proud to identify with such a manifestly appalling bunch of insipid, idea-strapped, directionless twits? Who would be content to include the mediocrity of bands like The Holloways and Reverend And The Makers (or worse, the ones who aren't so well known) in their listening regime? I've also noticed that British "indie kids", who identify with being "indie", often know absolutely nothing about the indie music of North America, i.e. where all the independent music worth anything at all is predominantly created.
What's up with all this?
