Talk about indie (independent) music here. What I mean by indie is music that is on an independent label or not signed at all. Not it being a type of sound, because indie is not a type of music.

What's your favorite record company? Band? Etc.

Share your musical knowledge.

Is there anyone else on their label yet, or is it just them?

They are not on a label actually. Not any more.

I thought they were on their own, as in they made one.

I know all about their free sharing on their website as well. Which is neat, but at the same time they tour a lot and I don't know the price of their tickets, but if I had to guess they're somewhat costly, since they are a big well known band.

I don't think they created a label, I think they are just being themselves. If that makes sense.

And of course Radiohead tickets are expensive. Its one thing to let people pick the price of a CD album, it's entirely another to pick the price of a show ticket. Ticket money goes towards the tour, stadium/ground fees, travel expenses, and the pay checks of the various people working on it.

People like freaked out about Radiohead dropping their label but I didn't find it a very risky move money wise a.) they are already established in the industry and b.) have a huge fanbase. Radiohead used the label system to get to the point where they don't need one. For a band without a label to get to Radiohead status would be something else.

This is true.

Eh, I'm just not a big Radiohead fan so I guess it just doesn't excite me that much, although what they're doing is interesting.

Speaking as a big Radiohead fan, what they are doing isn't interesting me as much as I am just still way too happy over a new album to listen too. xd

That it is!

So what indie bands do you like, or whatever. I have on clue what genre the music I listen to is half the time because it seems now that music genre's have gotten so finite I don't even bother placing it - let alone look into music I like's label or whatever.

I'm not a music obsessy, sadly. Mostly because I don't like listening to music and doing something else. I like to listen to music when I have the time to listen to the music.
