I do find it interesting the way they're commended up and down IDM when other artists doing similar things are thoroughly mocked. I also find their old hardcore roots ("Mr Kirk's Nightmare") amusing and enjoyable.

Modest Mouse rule, I need to buy one of their albums.

Screw that, I'm in the SubPop singles club. I liked Matador before they were releasing techno. I'm getting recommendations on pressing plants from friends who run indie labels and pressed 7"s. I'd wish IDM to be the least closed-minded mailing list, but it ain't sometimes...
