Welsh, so aye they are.

Placebo are the best. :3

We mainly pump out pop though, it's a bit shit really.

Yep! I listen to mostly British music... I'm British though, so I would!

It's so weird that so many of our bands are breaking into America now!

A few months ago, an American friend of mine was moaning about not being able to get a ticket for a huge sold out Snow Patrol gig in the US.
I mean, Snow Patrol? I went to see those guys play a really intimate gig just last year!
The drummer bought me a pint after the show because it was my birthday. :D

Actually, m'dear, rock and indie albums are both currently out-selling pop albums by quite a large amount.

Franz Ferdinand isn't British....

Cherish - Out selling maybe.
We're still producing a ton more pop with all these X-factor things. Ew.

And indie pisses me off too. WAY too much of that.

What's wrong with indie music?

Please explain.

I personally do not like it and think it all sounds the same. Do you have something wrong with my opinion?

I have a question.

What kind of music do you listen to?

Hmn, a huge mix.
If I like it. I'll listen to it.

Just not indie.

I find that funny.

Wtf. Just because I personally don't like indie. Chill out.

I don't listen to rap either. Don't like that.

I'm not flipping out at you, I just find a minimal amount of hilarity in your dislike of indie music.

Don't get defensive, I'm not attacking you.

Um. Right, whatever.

I listen to a huge mix. Most indie I dislike, not because it's labeled indie. Just because I don't like the music itself. There are probably one or two indie songs somewhere on my comp. Same with rap, most pop and alot of hard metal and stuff.

Haha! That makes it even funnier.

And what about indie music don't you like? The mellowness, the actual talent? I'm curious.

I just personally don't like it.
End of. Ffs.

Go piss someone else off.

I wasn't trying to piss you off.

You just got overly defensive.

That's not my fault.

I was simply asking a question.

ERGH. I'm not getting defensive i'm just bored of having my opinions questioned.

You are getting defensive, but hey, believe what you want.

I'm just wondering what you find to be so disdainful about indie music.

I just don't like it. What's so hard about that to accept? It bores me.

It's only hard to accept because there are so many different kinds of indie.

Most bands start out on an indie label, regardless of their genre.

I heard a long time ago they there were, like, Swedish or something.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Ferdinand_%28band%29

+ i'm from scotland, and i was going to gigs of their's before anyone had even heard of 'em

That's doesn't mean they're not Swedish.

I'm not saying you're wrong or anything, it's just not what I heard.

Is there anything you don't think is wrong? :roll:

well, lead singer was born in england and went to a scottish music college

drummer is scottish, bassist is english, and backing singer is english as well

but the band came from scotland, so they are considered a scottish band, kthnxbai
