There is no difference whatsoever

since I tend to only say "indiepop" if the band is incapable of rocking, I'll vote for indierock. but neither is any indication the band is actually good.

Indierock bands make indiepop tunes on occasion, but indiepop bands are *incapable* of making indierock.

I can't choose between them though. *adjusts trousers* This fence is very uncomfortable.

Propane and propane accessories.

Isn't 'indiepop' an oxymoron? Or do you mean 'obscure bands who make a sound kind of like stuff they hear that is actually popular'?

Indiepop just means it's got a melody, dave q.

Electric Six = only current actual indiepop band.
