I don't even know what indie is.

The fashion seems to be a hybrid of trendy and emo. The music is a mixture of electronic and rock. It's nothing original in terms of those aspects.

But there is definitely a mindset that goes along with it - the kind of impressionable and attention-seeking followers who're desperate to both be cool and different. In terms of school cliques and the such of the past 50 years or so, where music and fashion have played a strong role on teenagers, the cliques have either been very cool but very samey, or the different kids who are outcasts.

So now they've come together, it seems everyone is trying to customise their clothes and wear vintage **** and listen to unheard-of bands. I don't get it. Just be yourself, and what you feel comfortable in. I buy clothes from Primark and explore music keenly. 'ark at me.
