I think they are going for the whole “indie” college thing.

Ah…that would make sense I guess…
It seems to me that the indie sceen has really come out in the last few years. I’m not that big into indie bands mainly for the reason 95% + stink (or at least I don’t care for them) and that percentage is too high for me to wade through all of it to find the 5% that I actually do like…
