Being in college, a lot of my friends listen to a lot of "indie" rock - stuff like Neutral Milk Hotel, The Shins, Silver Jews, Spoon, Xiu Xiu, White Stripes, Arcade Fire, etc. Regardless of whether or not indie rock is really "indie" or not, what do you guys think about it?

As an art form, is it legit, or is it all just more derivative post-Cobain/Iggy Pop stuff?
