[Most] of the rest I find boring, derivative, and generic (to be fair, that description could also fit Franz and The Strokes).
I've never heard a song by Simian, and I don't care either way about The White Stripes.

I would still class the bands I listed as Indie, I'm going off the indie scene in my area, you will hear a lot about all of those bands.
White stripes are probably my favourite band at the moment, very original sound
I still don't really get the whole arguement over NME writing about a band, If I do read NME, it doesn't decide what I like and what I don't like though! NME is always saying a band will be the next big thing, probably not likely but I think what is more likely is 1 or maybe 2 songs from a band will be remembered. It isn't often you get any band which is remembered a decade later.
