Indie sleaze
- ... that the Indie sleaze era from about 2006 to 2012 was described by singer Gwenno as "very debauched, and probably the last moment where kids had been able to do whatever they want”? Source: “ You may also remember Gwenno from her time with The Pipettes. From 2003-2011 (with Gwenno joining in 2005), the indie-pop-meets-doo-wop trio released two albums through the ‘MySpace’ years, at a time that is now being looked back upon by many online as the “indie sleaze” era.
“I think I did read an article about that!” Gwenno told us. “I remember those fishnet tights and all those ripped band t-shirts.”
Asked about why the indie sleaze phenomenon might be catching on now, she replied: “I don’t know because it was very debauched, and probably the last moment where kids had been able to do whatever they want.”” NME

Article is a 5x expansion from a 307 byte version. Appears to be written neutrally, sourced throughout, including the hook fact, which is interesting enough. Earwig says violation unlikely, only flagging a few properly attributed quotes. QPQ is provided. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:40, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
