indie kid

A person (generally a teenager) who is either too poor or too apathetic to follow most musical or fashion trends. Generally, a certain proportion of the music they listen to has never been heard of by the general population.

Commonly (but not necessarily) associated with the nerd, the hipster, and Garden State. May or may not read the webcomic questionable content.
"Tyler always looks like he just woke up. He's in the other room right now listening to the Doves. He's such an indie kid."

indie kids are usually white, middle-class 13-18 year olds that can't afford branded clothing so they turn to 'vintage' clothing htat is suposed to make them individuals even though they all dress the same ( crap chekkard converse, tight denim, a bright colourful t-shirt and a zipped hoodie that is about three sizes too small). Indie kids are basically the same as the new 'mods'.
Mods and indie kids are obsessed wiht badges of their fav. band or artist and stick them to their hoodies and school bags.

Indie

Indie is the stereotype for people who belong to no stereotype. There is indie music, and there are indie films and designers. Some artists that would most likely be considered indie are Pinback, Andrew Bird, Nick Drake, Sufjan Stevens, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, etc. A lot of people say that an indie kid can't actually say that they are an indie kid, because that is accepting a label and indie kids are against labels. Personally, I'm really into independent music and films, and I was before it was classified as "indie", so I proclaim myself to be an indie kid. It's nice to have people ask what indie is. And otherwise people seem to think I am either emo or goth.
Me: I watched Manic last night, that movie is so amazing. Zooey Deschanel did a great job.
Other Kid: What is Manic? I've never heard of it.
Me: Well, you wouldn't have. It's an indie movie.
