So, we google imaged certain words and here are our results: 

After researching up the word indie we found words which were associated it and these words were: Grunge, Hipster, Alternative, Vintage and Pale. Each of these words share the idea of individuality, being different from society and it makes its own statement.

The word 'vintage' is a convection for the style of indie as many things appear to be vintage such as vinyl records which are considered to be more genuine and real.
