Thanks for clearing that up. Who decides what is IDM? I hear alot of people dissing the Chemical Brothers, because they are popular now. I think many of you liked them when they first came out, but aren't as impressed with them now. They did have some good songs, why not give them SOME credit. I was definitely disappointed with Setting Sun and the new CD doesn't really grab me, because it doesn't explore new terrain. I am not going to start dissing Brian Eno or Aphex Twin because I was disappointed with their last albums. I can appreciate what they did that was great (for its time). If you never liked the Chemical Brothers fine. I just see a lot of fickle of trainspotters, that will rave about an artist one moment and change their tune the next.
