It's not as bad as "indie rock" which nowadays most people seem to use describe what would be, I guess, alternative rock? But you can have blues rock, hard rock, metal, prog, etc. from "indie" bands too, so I think it's a dumb term.

Then again, "alternative" was already a pretty dumb term to begin with. What is it an alternative to? Now that it seems like it's the predominantly popular type of rock, it's kind of an ironic name at this point.
