NONSENSE: INDIE SLEAZE
A beautifully nostalgic night of 2000s Indie Sleaze music and vibes. Indie-Electro + Indie Bangers + Bloghaus = INDIE SLEAZE.
Join us on our appropriately dimly lit dancefloor for your favorite Indie Sleaze music, style, and vibes from the 2000s and 2010s at The Drunken Unicorn on Ponce.
For one night, skinny jeans are back in style, so throw on eyeliner, put on your deepest V or American Apparel gold leggings, sweep your bangs to the side, and get ready to get sweaty on the dance floor. Let’s make some blurry memories together.
You'll find us next to a Metro PCS store and a tattoo parlor, near a Chipotle on Ponce. It's not fancy, but completely perfect. It's fun to jump around to loud music in a dark basement getting sweaty together. Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!

What is indie sleaze?
"Sweaty floors, skinny jeans and angular indie rock. The term ‘indie sleaze’ was coined in 2021 to encapsulate the grimy, energetic, carefree sound and aesthetic of a scene which emerged in the early noughties. The music of indie sleaze all shared a distinctive 'hedonistic' aesthetic, one which prevailed in the music videos and the fashion of its artists, in their low-maintenance sometimes kooky clothing, a 'partying chic'."
