No, I just made it up. All those bands you see on that list are totally made up. :P 
 
I won't mention any names, but I have a couple of close relatives who've never even heard of King Crimson. Confused

I was trying to pull his leg, but i do find those genre names a bit ridiculous, especially sophisti-pop. I guess art-pop was not good enough. LOL

So you're mocking him, because he enjoys music called indie-pop, which I have heard and everyone knows that exists. As well calling an artist like Sade sophisticated-pop, which I can see based on her style, since you may not understand it you make fun of it......ok
Confused

not "sophisticated-pop", but sophisti-pop, now how does this not sound ridiculous? LOL
I guess I'm not sophisticated enough for sophisti-pop, will you ever forgive me? LOL

^ I only asked you what it was, listing artists does nothing for me to understand the oxymoronic indie-pop.

I asked for heavy metal examples, a music genre I just don't see you listening to. Evil Smile
