For fans of indie and alternative music.

For now there’s no real rules of Lemmy’s indieheads except these guidelines from the original subreddit:

We are purposely vague on a definition of “indie”. In general, music & news posts from these genres are not allowed:

Mainstream Rock/Metal Mainstream Pop Mainstream Hip Hop/R&B Mainstream Electronic & EDM

This is to encourage posts with music from more independent & underground artists. Experimental music & underground acts that exist within the banned genres will be allowed, at the discretion of the mods.

Feel free to discuss features you'd like to see on this community here. All ideas welcome!

“We have done a lot of different things over the years, but sometimes you just forget that you have free will – you can do whatever you want in these spaces,” says frontman and de facto bandleader Stu Mackenzie over the phone in September. “I don’t particularly want to try to start a movement or something like that – I’m happy if other people join. But for us, it was a decision about our music and a decision about what we think is right and what we think is not right. [We decided] we’re just gonna walk and deal with consequences later.”
