In regards to the whole lo-fi argument...no band is really part of any genre, objectively. Genres are representative terms that are part of a shortcut system of explaining things for fans and critics. Is it wrong to decide that a band fits into one category or another, I don't see how it can be, as there's no universally accepted reference point. Psychology has the DSM as its source for all standards and labels, for instance, but pop music has no equivalent, so can't we just let each other use generic labels however we like?
