I don't think there is any possible way I could go on about this subject while staying within the 10000 character limit.

i'm kinda hating the whole "low-fi folk rock" movement going on. i don't see what's so special about it. sure, it's low-fi, but only a few bands can truly pull it off without being annoying. and plus half of the songs are super bland.

Out of every Genre/movement/whatever you get a few bands that can pull it off and are actually good and then you get a few bands that are just bland and boring. What's the problem?

the rest are quite bland and all pretty much sound the same sometimes. |

One or two acts can pull off a certain production? Have a word. It's just like any genre, you get a few good ones and a few that use the lo-fi to blanket their lack of talent. Lo-fi is a great production, as long as the music actually has some substance.

I think the most irritating indie trend I can remember was the whole dadrock thing that started in the mid 90s & still seems to be around.
The kind of people who hero worship awful shit like Oasis, Ocean Colour Scene , Kaiser Chiefs & Cast and who seem to think Paul Weller is God. They remind me of the British equivalent of America's Pearl Jam / Grunge fanboys We've had a fair few of them come through here (And leave again, thank God) I think Mirrorball was the last.

I don't like this whole 'indie-pop' thing either, like Band Of Horses, The Format, etc.
