Should stream it online and see what you think. Some of the hosts are pretty annoying though, especially through summer. The breakfast duo are two nerds, one of whom is gay, funny as fuck though.
It's not a national indie station at all. The majority of what they play is pretty mainstream. The best thing they do is promote local music and of course unearth artists, which is the only indie thing about it.
They definitely are an Indie station, I'm talking in comparison to other radio stations. Music they play is definitely not mainstream for 70% of it. Pretty much every song they play won't currently be being played on any other station, and the 30% of 'mainsteam' songs they play are because they've played it so often people know them. They don't play Calvin Harris every 4th song like every other station.
Yeah triple J is the most indie station in Australia that I've heard. 10 minutes of listening the Zan Rowe crapping on about a band that's never been heard nor played before shows you that pretty quickly.
I should cover what I said by saying that I live in the country so don't get the range of station that yall city folk do.
I ended up voting for: Cinema - Benny Benassi 1996 - Wombats Video Games - Lana Del Ray I love it - Hilltop Hoods ft Sia Lonely Boy - Black Keys Junk of the heart - The Kooks Under te cover of darkness - Strokes And a couple of others that were toss ups and I forgot which ones I voted for.

FBI is the equivelant to Melbourne's PBS & RRR, Which is huge. What you meant to say is that nobody under 18 listens to that.
