IT'S JUST POLITE
Are the bands who ape U2's puffy momentousness not aware that U2 have not broken up, are doing quite well and are still writing songs that—if you are a U2 fan—meet requirements? Those who don't like Interpol's joy divisions are faced with the immovable fact that Joy Division are no longer around and their steez is pretty much up for grabs. Same with Arcade Fire's Ian McCullough and The E Street Band sound—it seems perfectly acceptable to pick up a ball if the putative owner has left it outside for weeks, months, years.
