Yes, lo-fi is in fact a genre. I already explained this. If it purely had to do with recording style, why aren't 60's garage rock bands and 70's punk bands considered lo-fi? Because it's a genre, that's why. Sure, Fun may be more polished than his previous recordings. But it isn't slicked up to be user-friendly. Both Fun and the bands I listed are lo-fi, get over it.

Lo-fi isn't a genre of music, it's all about record quality. People DO describe primitive recording quality that bands like the Adverts used as lo-fi, I don't know what rock you've been under. I would argue further but since all you can do is repeat yourself I'll just pull a you and go: LOLOLOLOL get over it!
