actually, yes. there are many more interesting albums to buy, in my
humble & easily dismissable opinion. all of which get far less good
press than they deserve, while decent idm acts like boards of canada or
say bola get so overhyped they actually obscure other good music which
doesn't live by said hype.
as a side note: supporting the same acts over & over regardless of what
they do just puts the entire music scene in stagnation & forces new
artists to imitate the 'current sound' to get a piece of hype
themselves. that's what you get from buying ae records out of habit,
rather than because you really like them.
