could be true. whatever. if so, i would file them as the IDM equivalent to EBM's
front line assembly. nothing groundbreaking, but very consistent, generally
doing everything right. although fla have recorded quite a few clunkers in their
time, they have also done some very good albums for the genre - albeit
somewhat pedestrian in a way. which doesn't actually prohibit me from liking
them, because they're just well done. somehow others do pretty much the same
thing but don't make the cut. to me proem does.
and actually, i don't see proem as any more cliched-IDM than say, phoenecia,
who are also very good.
