indie is a subculture founded on being free... having a mind of your own, most indie kids fall into it by being considered strange or eccentric by most stern right wings..

A Mindset Of The "Hidden Masses"
Not The Elitest Arseholes That Claim To Be Indie. It's A State Of Mind, And As So, Not Defined As The Shins, Franz Ferdinand, Stone Roses, Richard Ashcroft or The Music .. It Can Reach From Eurphoric Dance Music To The Melancholly Of Eels.
Indie Kids Are Usually Better Educated Due To Immense Lyrics (Gold Leafed Triptych Angel á lá Stone Roses) & An Older Following (Who They Gain Knowledge Off)

Average Joe : Heard A Kasabian Song Last Night .. They're Good .. But Are They Indie?
Indie Kid : Dunno, They're Mainstream, But So Are The Verve ..
Average Joe : It Was On Tomb Raider, Did You Watch It ..
Indie Kid : Nope, I Was At A Rave ..

A genre' of music as well as a 'fashion' and part of an individuals personality. Most 'Indie' people consider themselves the gurus of music and that their genre' of music is the only one able to be appreciated as 'real' music.
Indie's give off a very elitist asshole attitude which is unbelievably annoying.
They claim to only listen to 'underground' music that isn't widely popular or common, which is contradicted by bands like Radiohead or artists like Adam Young from Owl City.
According to Indie kids, Adam Young is a sell-out?
Basically, if you're an artist who makes money, you are no longer considered popular amongst Indie kids.
Also, Indie people like to put themselves above the other social status of 'Emo' although they appear to be insanely similar, besides attitude. Also, 'Scene' kids seem to differ from Indie. Basically, you have to be a total douche bag to be an Indie kid who likes to put themselves above everyone else because they have a depressing home / school life and they've mastered the art of alienation.
In essence, an Indie = Emo / Scene without the whining emotion, and more of a stuck-up princess attitude.

Person: Hey, a friend told me you liked Modest Mouse?
Indie Kid: Not anymore?
Person: How come...?
Indie Kid: They're sell-outs and totally unoriginal...don't talk to me about 'good' music.
Person: ...I see... O.o lol?

crappy type of music that indie scene kids will call independent/non-mainstream music. its not mainstream because it sucks, and it usually ends up just being emo anyways.
indie sucks. id rather listen to bands that everyone knows about because theyre good. thats why everyone knows about them.
