According to the BBC website, “In 2008, The Word magazine coined the phrase “indie landfill” to describe a seemingly endless parade of identikit bloke-bands cluttering the airwaves.” Apparently, according to the BBC anyway, those bands are reforming and playing to bigger audiences than they had in their heyday. Leaving aside the BBC’s inability even to get the two words in the right order, surely this is bad news? But there must be plenty of other genres we’d also like to consign to the dustbin of history.
Prog is the wrong answer, by the way.
