Birmingham Indie is a genre of music that originated in Birmingham, England in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It is characterized by its jangly, guitar-driven sound, often featuring prominent use of synthesizers and drum machines. The genre is heavily influenced by post-punk, new wave, and alternative rock, and is often associated with the "Brumbeat" scene of the city. Birmingham Indie bands often have a strong sense of regional identity, and their lyrics often focus on the city's working-class culture and its struggles. Notable Birmingham Indie bands include The Wonder Stuff, Pop Will Eat Itself, and Felt.
