(n)When someone has indie cred it usually means that they are familiar with independent movements in cultural sectors such as art, music, fashion, and will most likely be an advocate for such changes. They are usually concentrated in urban areas that are known for their facilitation of underground cultural exchanges and are recognisable by their bold yet suave adornments. Many are visual art, design, drama or music students and fall under the under 30's age group.

Indie is a word that has a slightly different meaning for every person on the planet. Here is my definition, Indie is simply being oneself, however only people that are "independent" enough from the norm are recognized as Indie. You do not have to like obscure bands to be Indie, you can like a bit of everything and still be Indie, even pop music, Indie isn't even solely defined by what music you like anyway. It's one aspect, but the clothes you wear, the language you use, your personality. Still, only a few people can be Indie, and you can't learn it, your just born with it. Within Indie, people are still not completely independent of each other, take Pendulum for example, alot of people like them, alot of indie people do too. Indie people share interests and do not all like completely different things, here is what I believe the formula for Indie is, 20-15% pop culture, 80-85% personality/personal taste. It's similar to Ribena, pop culture is Ribena, personality is water, without the pop culture(Ribena) , you and Indie(water and Ribena) will taste nothing alike, Even Indie people need some common ground, or being Indie would be boring, and without the water(personality) your just generic old pop culture, you have nothing to offer the Indie community. But then again, that's just how I define Indie.
Normal guy: Hey, sup

Normal guy: Hey, that's pretty cool and chiptuney

Get the Sweet Invite mug.The act of drawing images on your skin with a pen. This is commonly done in primary and middle school, sometimes it can happen in high school. This act is mostly done by artsy people who weren't allowed to bring a sketchbook to class.
The images are usually drawn on the arms and sometimes legs. Depictions of mandalas and flowers are a pretty common sight.

Get the The Indie mug.A preteen/teenager who has an indie (independant)/rocker style.
Apperance:
Boys would usually have quite messy hair, which even though would probably be in some sort of side-fringe, would be nothing like scene/emo hair. Boys would also probably wear rocker jeans, converse and rocker t-shirts.
Girls would have wavy, rocker hair, also maybe in a side-fringe, but not like scene hair, which is usually high-lighted. They would wear denim skirts/jeans, rocker t-shirts and converse.
Personality:
Indie rock kids are usually happy people, that don't care what others think. However, some indie rock kids could be depressed, but they would still have the I-don't-care attitude.
Music:
Indie rock kids would listen to:
-> Rock (but not modern emo rock)
-> Indie
-> Alt. rock
-> Some alt.metal (but not emo/gothic metal)
-> Grunge
:)
