daniel beddingfield, mariah carey, courtney love, christina milian, sum 41, fall out boy- all on island records. not much of an indie label really. Indie rock is often used to refer to bands that are on small independent record labels or that aren't on labels at all. In that sense, indie rock can be seen as the follower to the Punk and New Wave movements of the late 1970s and early 1980s, as a counter-culture movement opposed to mainstream corporate rock. island records is now a major record label.
