Indie?

I've seen this all over, but how is C.L.L. Crystal Lover Light indie? The majority of the songs from the album sound like R&B and there a few acoustic type tracks, but I wouldn't call it indie. I feel like someone probably described the album as "indie" and then it spread. What do you guys think? ~ Themonkeyofdoom 01:45, 16 April 2010 (CDT)

I'm not sure. I've just been paraphrasing from Wiki and what I can manage to read from JWiki so I've no other info on it. Also I haven't even listened to the entire album yet I've only heard a few of the songs. But if you're right I assume the image change would still apply since her later albums incorporated a more urban and pop theme rather then the R&B and acoustic you've mentioned right, so should I just take out the indie portion? BTW I know there's a lot of grammar errors in the article lol I plan on fixing those later :D, though I'm sure there will still be tons of them even after XD (C in English -_-..

I haven't listened to the album, but Shadows of Desire definitely sounds like indie pop, although TEENAGE UNIVERSE ~Chewing Gum Baby sound completely R&B XD. And I ear a mix between both in Eternal Memories. --Pizca 08:11, 16 April 2010 (CDT)
I downloaded the album last night before I posted this to make sure I wasn't crazy xD; I agree that "Shadows of Desire" isn't R&B, but would not call it indie pop. When I hear term indie music things like this pop into my head. Even more than the sound it also has a lot to do with the whole DIY music scene, which Kuri doesn't fit into. Also, I don't think she "pop side" and an "indie side" as much as she just a change her sound to more urban pop to help further sales. ~ Themonkeyofdoom 10:10, 16 April 2010 (CDT)
Yeah, I agree. I was talking about a "commercial indie pop" (sometimes Kaela reminds me of that) that it may appear as a random fact on the page, but definitely not as her main style in that time.--Pizca 10:44, 16 April 2010 (CDT)
So what should be done? Should I take out the image change references as a whole or just the indie mentions? There's also an indie mention in the C.L.L. Crystal Lover Light page that someone made so I'll have to reword that also if so --Krazoom 19:55, 16 April 2010 (CDT)
For now, just take out the info on indie. There was a style change, but I'm trying to figure how to word it. To me, I feel like she's move more into pop and urban music, while the eariler releases were more R&B orientated. I'm trying to think of an R&B song from after the change and I can't really think of one =/ ~ Themonkeyofdoom 02:23, 17 April 2010 (CDT)
Ok gotcha, but does that mean the R&B categories should be removed from the later releases? Btw I think I need a favor here.. A while back I added a delete tag to a page that probably shouldn't have been deleted in the first place (though sitll not sure). It's the I LIKE IT! / REEEWIND! page. I tried to move it out of there but it wouldn't let me. I made a new page but stupidly made the "It" into "it". Is it possible to merge the two pages? I was trying to undo my mistakes but it's all just going wrong XD--Krazoom 02:38, 17 April 2010 (CDT)
