Who is creating all these sub genres? is it the bands themselves or is it fans trying to force their individuality simply by labeling it differently?
How else would you describe pop music with jangly guitars?
Besides the term has been around in one form or another since the mid 80s, it's not exactly a new thing.

As for Briks, you need to get your hands on this 5CD box set....
