A fork of Rural Dictionary
A bog-standard, charisma-deficient, boring-shouty-guitar-rock "indie" band propelled to undeserved stardom through favourable reviews/coverage in the NME, a once-great, now-rubbish music weekly.
Sadly, in the UK, many people consider these bands to be the definition of indie.
Kasabian, Hard-Fi, The Kooks, Babyshambles, The Arctic Monkeys, Bloc Party, Razorlight: shit NME bands.
