I've said here before that I think they're the best current American band. I'm not a hipster.

people on here need to realize that "hipster" does not mean "i don't like this"

if that were the case, then phish is the most hipster band on here

Baloo said it best though. What does it even mean anymore?

IRL people call me a hipster for knowing members of a band or the name of an album.

If Skrillex is hipster then I REALLY don't understand what hipster means

I love Arcade Fire. Family friends, actually. And their live show is like nothing I've ever seen. Crazy energetic and they are all so disgustingly talented. Awesome band.

All these bands on alt nation xm 36 aren't "hipster" bands. It's a lot of indie pop/alt pop rock.

My most "hipster" 3 (in no particular order):
1) Animal Collective
2) Vampire Weekend
3) Bon Iver

FWIW: A lot of tards on this board assume you're hipster if you don't list to shitty jam bands. Phish sucks, DWI.

Yeah, I guess the definition is very maleable.

Frank Ocean
Daft Punk
A$AP Rocky

Not saying I consider these bands/people hipster, just saying this is what my "hipster" friends are really pumping up right now. Hip-hop has come on strong with the PBR fans over the last year.

Since when did #1 chart topping, Grammy winning artists become hipster?

I expected to see band names like:

Penis Hole Revival
Mom Jeans
National Prepubic Radio

shite like that. Those are hipster band names.

I don't even really know what "hipster" music means anymore... I just lump most indie music into it I guess. Regardless, there's a ton of great indie/hipster music out there and I imagine a lot of the present day music I listen to would categorize me as a hipster, which I'm far from.

But seriously, remove pop, hip hop/rap, country, and jam bands, and pretty much all you're left with is what people call "hipster" music.... so if you don't listen to the radio or stream live Panic shows then you're a hipster I guess
