I'd say that this 'alternative' stuff also has a lot more tendencies to co-opt grassroots genres like folk and country, too, and this is why it can be quite horrific when done badly but Actually Properly Good when done well.
in other words there's far less of the retro-rock'n'roll crap and prostation before The Q/NME Canon Of Rock which makes most (British) indie so bad.
