Ain't that the point - this isn't about originality, because that can't be done - humanity learns by copying, memes, etc. But there's no excuse for a band, such as rubbish like Interpol, to lift their material so much that it's just a fucking cringe-fest. "Oh, I like Joy Division, I know, I'll pretend to sing like Ian Curtis."
 
What shite!!!

Just my two cents......
Everything is related, and every musician starts out as a fan.  I mean, Coleman and BPF were members of a Reggae band before KJ.  You can't make that stuff up!
 
So I guess that means nothing is "new and fresh".  However, today's current environment encourages homogenization, which is a completely different animal, IMHO.  But everything is
subject to.....
CHANGE!!!!!!!

Funny how, when a 'new' band is mentioned, they're related to one from the past...
