They are though, for the purposes of classification. Tiny teams can't afford this stuff and go without things like like polished VA.
A game on the scale of hades 2 can't be achieved by an indie dev, that's fine. Supergiant found success and grew, now they can make games with a level of polish and scope Indies can't achieve.
Good for them! Good for us!
But they do this level of polish with voice actors and music since Bastion, their first game. Logan Cunningham and Darren Korb are part of Supergiant.
Bastion was a much more limited game and reflects their status as actually indie at the time.
Indie doesn't mean low quality, it's about resources that's all.
