I'd say it was interesting, experimental indie rock that uses electronics. It isn't IDM by any manner of means, but that's not a compelling reason to slate it. Although I can think of valid reasons to dislike it (matters of taste, as always), I rather suspect a degree of 'if-the-indie-kids-like-it-we-can't-admit-to-it-being-good' elitism. (And if anyone's thinking of flaming me on this, I'm sure that you fall into the former category.) Now for somehing else not quite IDM. Can anyone recommend bits of the genre that seems to have become electroclash? Preferably the stylish but eclectic electro / house end rather than the Gary Numan B-side with beefed up beats variety. Compilations would be good, as I'd be interested to get a cross section before spending big money.
