I think that the word "indie" as well as the word "emo" lost its intentional meaning. They've both become descriptive for a lifestyle, mostly fashionwise. But as every lifestyle these ones need some person to identify with and get a basis for the whole group. In this case you've got the music.
And hell what do all these bands have to do with Fugazi or Pavement? You know the answer and you know that it's all a fart in the wind.
