My Chosen Genre!

I think that its very hard to say one artist is a rock song writer and one is an indie song writer because artists/bands change their genre and style frequently,between albums and songs. So this made is quite difficult for me to decide a certain specific genre for my magazine.
I noticed after looking at different music magazines that the genre mostly shown in todays magazines is alternative rock/modern rock/indie, so i have decided that i will use alternative rock/indie for my music genre type. I think that this is a good idea as many young trendy fashionable people like this genreas its up to date and modern, lso young people like  to got to watch gigs and live performances of their favorite bands and artists of these genre type are known for live gigs and tours. Artists within these music genre types are passionate about the music that they create and many bands/artists base their songs on real life experiences that they have had and not just some sad love song that they have made up like most "pop" artists do nowadays. Also the songs in which these artists write everyone can relate to and because most of these indie/alt rock bands/artists are young adults, young people such as myself can relate to them more because they are of a similar age to me and things that they sing about may effect my life in a certain way too.

Also personally alternative rock/indie music is what i enjoy listening to the most and i think that as i already have some knowledge about these two genres that i will find making my music magazine much easier than chosing  a genre such as "pop" which is something i rarely listen to as the voices are autotuned and the music sounds very electro. I prefer real music with real voices and real instruments which of course is more impressive and interesting to listen to than a computer edited voice.
