first off you've obviously never listened to Indie Rock,
just listen to Sufjan Stevens (old) Matt Pond PA, Red House Painters, sunkilmoon, The National, and Portrogal the Man, that will shut you up.
I have to agree with Srevahn, this is excellent BM, and if you don't like it thats fine, but if you feel the need to trash it, you're probably some douche who listens to Dimmu Borgir and shaves his head to show his metal affinity.
