<p>What genre would you call those bands?</p>
<p>Seriously. Indie isn't a genre.</p>
<p>"My Morning Jacket!!!! <--they were mentioned on CC somehwere the other day."</p>
<p>That would be by me!!!</p>
<p>"The rest just.... suck."</p>
<p>Finally, someone else who shares my hatred for Jack Johnson. Ughh.</p>
<p>Indie bands are signed to INDEPENDENT labels. Indie isn't a genre... although I guess it could be argued that indie rock/indie pop are...</p>
<p>Indie bands/singers/rappers can belong to any genre. In fact, NSYNC was once technically indie =)</p>
<p>How about copeland...are they indie?</p>
<p>Yes. You can tell by the label =)</p>
<p>I'll echo Of Montreal.</p>
