Do you see now why I would call those bands "pseudo-indie NME tripe?" Almost all are signed to a major label or a subsidiary of a major label, almost all are written about by the NME, and almost all are bad.

The White Stripes were signed to Sympathy For The Record Industry when White Blood Cells became a hit , so they went a major label , so what? ... so do lots of bands.
Franz Ferdinand are signed to Domino records who are distributed by Rough Trade , thats about as indie as you can get.
