Indie rock is a genre of alternative rock that originated in the United Kingdom and the United States in the 1980s.

Indie rock is extremely diverse, with sub-genres that include indie pop, jangle pop, C86, and lo-fi, among others.

Indie rock, derived from " independent ", describes the small and relatively low-budget labels on which it is released and the do-it-yourself attitude of the bands and artists involved.

Indie rock has been identified as a reaction against the " macho " culture that developed in alternative rock in the aftermath of Nirvana's success.

Calling indie rock part of " Alternative Rock " is not correct since it has little to do with the production values, message, and history of that genre ( in the early 2000s, Alternative Rock acts in their attempt to regain mainstream status competed in the charts against Indie Rock acts actively ), yet a significant number of indie rock bands refuse to align to other mainstream genres that generally fail to describe them at all.
