Maybe I am generalizing, but I see it as a fact, and I wish more people would realise it.

What bright eyes have you actually heard? Cause thats a complete bull, yeah if you heard something off of a collection of songs I suppose but for the most part everything bright eyes has done>>>>>>>nickelback. And indie is a veryvery large group of bands to bash like that. Besides, like 80% of punk artists were indie bands.
