Even if the tunes are generic (and I can't think of one that is), he finds ways to make them work very well within the story. And tbh, this all depends on the definition of generic.

SoaD used a technique in the intro that's been done way too often. Whereas every Sith theme I know is not solely about musical talent, but about being sychronizing with the story.

I'm sure you can find me "generic" John Williams tracks, but I can't think of any related to Star Wars or Indy.
Sigh. You take me too seriously sometimes. Quit getting hung up on the intro and look at the big picture because you're probably arguing against a strawman at this point.
