How about a vinyl record of his favorite alternative/indie rock band, or a collection of vinyls from different bands in the same genre? You could also get him a subscription to a music magazine that covers alternative/indie rock, or concert tickets to see his favorite band in concert. Another option is a book about the history of alternative/indie rock or a biography of one of his favorite musicians. Additionally, you could create a Spotify or Apple Music playlist of his favorite alternative/indie rock songs or albums.
Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.
