7. Bang Bang You're Dead

Just six action-packed years after the start of the UK indie
sleaze music scene, The Word magazine coins the derisory term
“Landfill Indie” to describe the oversaturation of guitar music,
turning the entire genre into a joke. Major labels are falling
over themselves to sign the next big indie thing, but many of
these hopefuls aren’t ready for the limelight. And audiences seem
ready for a new, entirely different, sound ... one that's less
male-dominated, for starters. Cue Kate Nash, Adele, Laura
Marling, Florence Welch and co.


Featured interviewees include Alexandra Haddow, Johnny Borrell,
Tara Joshi, Alex Kapranos, Paul Smith and Gary Jarman Presented
by Kate Nash Produced by Jack Howson & Rich Power A Peanut
& Crumb production for BBC Sounds & 6 Music
