If you’ve got five minutes spare and fancy a laugh, pop over to Channel 4’s new project Find Your Tribe.
After answering a few questions about where you’re from, what you get up to in your spare time and what kind of music you’re into, you’re asked to say what brands you love or hate and then dished up a short film about your ‘tribe’. It covers classics like Goths, Townies, Indie Kids and Chavs, and more recent tribal appearances like Indie Scenesters, Hipsters and Craft Kids. There are 26 in total.
FYI, various members of The Line Of Best Fit staff have come out as Indie Kids, Indie Scenesters, Hipsters and Craft Kids…
Guilty as charged.
So have a go on the quiz at www.findyourtribe.co.uk, and post up your results below if you feel like it. And we’ll mock you fiercely basically.

Yep, I come up as an Indie Kid, on account of my Converse shoes apparently.
At least mine are not pink, that would be awful.

boy, that was a great lame attempt to sugar-coat market research from people just dying to define themselves :)

Ha! Whenever i get to the question asking what drugs you’ve tried, it doesnt let me go any further… wonder why (?!)
Oh well i kinda like being undefined!

I had the same problem with the drugs page too. Maybe ticking too many boxes confuses things!

never heard of an indie scenster before!
I got indie kid anyway, not really me considering i dont listen to Indie music and have never picked up an issue of NME before in my life =/
but i guess it is kinda hard to pinpoint someone who listens to death metal and hannah montana lol
