FT5: Worst Trends In Indie Rock

So while recently looking back on our earliest days here at ATH, I skimmed over on an almost 2 year old post about our least favorite things in the music world.  If you don’t care to read that old piece of journalism, it was more a focus on trends in the extremely popular media world.  We ranted on myspace, the loudness of some new rock bands, and the decline of albums as an art form.  Looking back, I’d say myspace is really on it’s way out, loudness is a declining trend and albums seem to be on the rise.  We made a difference!  For today, I’d like to focus on 5 things that really erk me about our little niche known as the “indie music world”.  Of course with bands like Arcade Fire, Band of Horses, and Spoon topping the charts, these trends are slowly making the move from indie to popular.  We must put a stop to them now!  Follow the jump for more.
