they made one good album, RA made 3.

Wow, 1 good album? All the Monkeys' albums are good to great imo, though the debut still remains my favorite (followed by AM, Favourite Worst Nightmare, Humbug, then Suck It and See).

yeah, good might have been an understatement. Nothing other than the debut has come close, while RpM, SSotCC and TS&TW are all very close

[shakermaker]

Definitely an understatement there - was kinda surprised that somebody with your music tastes would only consider 3/7 Rise Against (studio) albums to be good

LOL, I can see that happening. If "R U Mine?" has the standard 20 week chart run, that'll put "Do I Wanna Know?" at 74 weeks. It could beat "Savior"'s record! (Might as well go for it, it just passed "Uprising".)

NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Rise Against are legendary. Arctic Monkeys are not.

Maybe in the US. Go to the UK and that statement would be a complete and utter lie.

[Lordef†ones]

Wait a second.

AM wasn't Arctic Monkeys' debut album? *shot*

The ones I left blnak I have no clue what to call them.

But still, 10 is labeled indie pop and 9 is labeled garage/blues. A welcome surprise, and seems that maybe a trend might overthrow? From there, we have 4 for indie rock, the more guitar-driven side of the spectrum, we have 2 indie-folk songs, 2 post-grunge songs, 2 pop songs, 2 "alternative rock" songs, which is vague but fuck it, 1 EDM song from Coldplay, 1 pop-punk song, 1 melodic hardcore punk (which I just labeled punk) and a few undetermined.

[Doc Indie Party Rock]

Cody titles them more aptly. First off; POp doesn't enter the Alt charts. Ever! Unless it has the word Indie, Electro or Anti etc..., before it. Interesting what Fitz and Tantrums. falls under. I was calling them Blue Eyed Soul for their Hall & Oates sound, but Neo Soul sounds just at home on Alt rock charts. Bottom line is Alt rock is and always has been a diverse rock chart. You don't see that much diversity on any other chart. maybe HOT AC AAA, but , not as much good songs as Alt rock.

Most sources do refer to them as indie pop or class them with other alternative/indie pop artists, yes

But let's not rehash this mess all over again unless anybody actually has some new insight to bring to the discussion, please

INDIE SOUL (2)

Anyways, diverging back, kinda surprised that you'd classify Knox Hamilton as "indie soul" à la Fitz and the Tantrums; to me this is straight-up indie pop

No, it's indie soul à la Hozier, F&TT are neo-soul

knox Hamilton is nothing like hozier thoousawjwk?

[Cody]

No, Hozier is darker. I always planned on classifying Knox as indie soul, I just don't know what to call Hozier. I would've classified "Take Me To Church" as "Absolute Sh*t" but that isn't a genre. He is kinda soul influenced, but I donno, he's by far the toughest to classify on the chart.

knox is no more soulful than pajama wedding so idgi why you classified them as such

[Cody]

Disagreed, but to each his own.

Exactly, that's what I said at the top of my post where I re-classified yours.

However, the chart is still about as diverse as it's been at any point during the last 15 years. I mean, the only difference is we're splitting the indie hairs as oppose to the hard rock hairs.

and for that I can agree with you, it's just that the more indie stuff blends together more than the hard rock stuff does. besides, pop-punk and a various other genres also charted well.

See, now I still find say, Black Keys (Garage/Blues), Fun. (Indie Pop), and Of Monsters And Men (Indie Folk) to be just as different from one another than Seether (post-grunge), Three Days Grace (Hard Rock), and Linkin Park (Nu Metal).

But like I said, it's all subjective.
