Being on a major recording company has nothing to do with "sounding good" - Indie Bands is capable in making "good sounds" as bands on major studios. So,Being on a major recording company has nothing to do with sounding good! - Indie Band Articles what's the real deal of a band being in a major label versus band from small labels? Indie Bands are characterized by being a band outside a major recording company. They are the group of musicians who communicate their passion in music freely and transparently. They are young, talented, energetic, and committed on what they play. They are the composer, director, marketer, promoter, performer and fans of their own music. They play what they love, they communicate their thoughts, they are exactly who they are on how they play music.

In the past, they are characterized as bands that have low marketable margin. They are budget-limited on their promotion and awareness campaign. They tend to resort to market their gigs and music via word-of-mouth, which arguably reaches small audiences. They produce low quality music videos as they do not have high-end equipment.

Presently, lot and more Bands are no longer dependent on major studios. Thanks for the large volume of inexpensive and high end band equipment available at the consumer level, because of this Indie Bands can organize their own gigs. Thanks to the falling cost of technology, Indie films can create wonderful music that are not commercially concentrated. Thanks for the computer as Indie Bands can release more character driven music videos. Thanks for the Social Network, marketability of Indie Bands are now as huge as the World Wide Web.
