About

Indiepop Atlas is a place for you to learn about what's new in indiepop. You can check the titular atlas for information on the bands who are active in your area, or in areas you may want to visit. We'll also have regular album reviews, so you can keep up with what's going on in the greater indiepop world. Whether you've been part of the scene since Beat Happening's debut, or recently heard Belle and Sebastian for the first time, we hope you find what you're looking for here!

Authorial Tone

I try to do my best to write artist biographies in a neutral-to-positive way, regardless of whether I like the band or not (though my personal opinion will still be there sometimes). I'm not here to be mean, I'm just here to help you find your next favorite band! With regard to reviews, some of those will be positive, some will be negative, like any other music site. I don't envision myself writing straight-up hitpieces or anything like that, obviously, but if I really dislike something, I'm going to say so! With that said, generally, if I write a review about something, it means that I felt like I had something to say that it was worth my time to write about, and more importantly, worth your time to check out (not that that means unreviewed albums aren't worth your time, obviously!).
