The name contravene means 'rebel' and we thought this was very fitting for our band as they fit into the ideas that bands in this genre go against the norm and make a statement by rebelling against authority.
Contravene is band consisting of 3 males aged 19-25 from Manchester, we chose this band as we feel they are most appropriate at conforming to the stereotypes of music of their genre which is indie. Contravene share similar values and beliefs as their fans of that genre, for example the way they dress and also their attitudes and morals. From our collage you can see the overall look that contravene have, for example the clothing and hobbies.
We have chosen to use the song 'What Took You So Long' as the lyrics of the song and also the beat conform to the indie genre. For example, the beat is fast and loud with a catchy pace and rhythm, this is seen in other indie songs such as oasis 'supersonic' and the stone roses 'fools gold'. The lyrics of this song include 'you're always bad and you're always rotten' and 'you've spent two months long sat in your bedroom' this is typical of youth to be lazy as that is a stereotype of youth and also that they are reblious. The stereotype of being rebellious is also associated with the indie genre as they are perceived as carefree and mischevious
