everyone here has such predictable and pigeonholed opinions of music.
So why do you post here then if we are all so predictable?

I'd sooner classify them as plain ol' rock than indie...:\

Not sure if I follow the "pieced together in 5 minutes by a deaf person" comment. Are you referring to Animal collective's style or the general production value of indie records?

Lol, Pixies and Built to Spill sound nothing alike so to combine the two = original.

A lot of bands mix influences together and are still called un-original.

Primarly because they have influences.

The Beatles had influences too. I guess they're unoriginal.
