Indie can be a pose. Punk can be a pose. Anything can be a pose.

If there's one thing the music world should know by now, it's that.

(Hell, one of the best-known punk groups, the Sex Pistols, was a boy band put together by Malcolm McLaren. Sid Vicious was McLaren's idea.)

They were never an indie band but they inspired other who were.

Punk doesn't mean indie.. but the simplicity of technique makes it a natural fit
