"The truth is, I feel like there needs to be something completely original once again" YES!!! The so called 'new rock revoultion' is a joke created by the NME to make them seem important. Sex pistols brought us revoultion in music/ideas/etc the Strokes brought us a million 'the' bands who mostly all sound the same. Of course, if you look at it another way, punk was a 'fuck off' to prog bands and rock dinosaurs. There is a lot more things to say fuck off to now: coperate punk (aka pop-punk), coperate rock (as you said), nu-metal, 'the' bands and pop music! (as well as hip-hop and dance music) So we better start the revoultion soon, before someone else does! Not like I'd let them though. >:)
