I think you could come up with a better explanation for why the additional instrumentation falls out of time with the main melody, which also stutters here and there with awkward pauses. A lot of out key notes too, which create unfitting dissonance, and percussion that seems very unorganized.
All these upsettings, sudden, jazzy variations are used extensively in professional recordings, but only a few manage an acceptable degree balance. You can hear some of it throughout albums like 90125 by Yes.
Actually, it is often the case that talentless hacks resort to such trickery as a mere attempt to conceal the fact that they can't make music, hoping the weirdness factor is going to add "depth" to their songs and overshadow their mediocrity, and that's the core of indie music.
This song in particular, well, not my cup of tea, but I'd say it's completely legit.
