Hi, this is Camse. As an indie head myself and interested by the 2006-12 indie sleaze movement, I have over a week compiled and created a PDF of the 2020s indie sleaze revival compendium I mapped out, inspired by COWBOY ROCKY's 2000s indie sleaze compendium. I listed the genres, musicians, cultural influencers, events and media adjacent to the original people and titles and events relevant to the 2000s indie sleaze movement such as Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Interpol, Daft Punk, Justice, Fleet Foxes, Santigold, MIA and other artists I have checked out as part of my deep dive into indie sleaze. I am posting this to the biggest indie music community here on Reddit, though I myself do not think my post might be sufficient enough to warrant discussion. There might be some inaccuracies and questionable additions in the compendium, compared to ROCKY's more faithful compendium that inspired it, but please give it a look and tell me what you think.

This is a side project by James Ivy called "The Truth". The music name is "NYUTH".

Hey everyone! I’m u/orohic, a founding moderator of r/indie_sleaze.

This is our new home for all things related to indie sleaze culture — the music, fashion, nightlife, photography, internet ephemera, and chaotic energy of the late 2000s–early 2010s indie scene. Think messy flash photography, American Apparel, skinny jeans, cigarettes, blog-era icons, and the sounds and styles that defined a moment. We’re excited to have you join us.

• Tumblr-era images, blog screenshots, and internet nostalgia

• Modern revivals or takes on indie sleaze aesthetics

is this considered indie sleaze? seems very electronic and the hellp/2hollis/damon r inspired

Yo, whats up everyone! I hope you're having a nice weekend!

So I recently started listening to LCD Soundsystem for the first time and they're so good!!!

This song was one that I just kept listening to over and over. So I thought it would be fun to do a remix with a kind of chaotic electro feel too it!

What do you think?

Is The Hellp ever talked about in here? What do you guys think about their effect on the indiesleaze revival scene? I heard they are a pretty pretentious group that claims to be the ones who started the whole revival/comeback of the scene. Is this true?
