THANK YOU! I was reading through this - great history and genre definitions by the way, I'll be using this - but was very disappointed that, until the last post, I didn't even see anyone talk about Fugazi. They were definitely major in the creation of indie. Ian McKaye's whole DIY philosophy is a key factor in what makes a real indie band (although the punk community was also very DIY).
From what I've heard, I really love shoegaze and was wondering what other bands are like Chapterhouse, the Boo Radleys, and Lush.
