Maybe they like the genre.... its no different than calling yourself metal, punk or whatever. There's been some cutting edge bands latley particularly Queens of the Stone Age aswell as countless metal and punk bands from their respective underground scenes. When you think about it throughout every era there's only been a handfull of bands that really mattered anyway the rest were generic bullshit. Good music is out there you've just got to delve thru a lot of shit to find it.
