well if we're talking lo-fi, that'd be a subgenre, and if you check the allmusic guide, I believe it would back that up. Anyway, bands can easily combine genres...I hate to use them as an example, but was Limp Bizkit rap or metal? weren't they, albeit, in a very sh!tty way, both? Subgenres are more easily combined than genres, I suppose, because they're more specific in their characteristics. But who are you to limit bands to one genre? Did you email all of them to let them know? We wouldn't want any of them f-ing up and going to jail.
