United Kingdom during the mid-1980s.• The term "indie" had been used for some time to describe artists on

independent labels and the labels themselves. The actual naming of the genre ‘indie pop’ was due to the release of NME’s C86 tape in 1986, the compilation featured many artists such as; Primal Scream, The Pastels and The Wedding Present.

• In the mid-late ’80s, Indie Pop was criticised for ‘shambling’ and underachieved.
