well, the programmer behind it is Tamborello (Dntel) and as i said earlier, i like his solo work, but coupled with Ben Gibbard just makes a nightmare seem even worse. It seems that a lot of women tend to like the Postal Service...I wonder if that says anything, or perhaps i'm just stereotyping

Laibach (an industrial group) did remixes of songs by the death metal band Morbid Angel.

what does that have to do with IDM?

Yeah I know...still they are eletronic with metal...I didn't think it counted but they are worth mentioning anyway IMO.

laibach! man, i used to be way into industrial. never actually into the "scene" and all the rivethead shit, but.....just an avid listener. last rights is still one of my top 10 albums.

anyway, resume discussion.

I've heard earlier M83 be described this way...

hi, not sure if it's exactly what you had in mind but DisinVectant blend together different ideas and styles with attitude like a finely tuned hammer...mp3s available at www.soundclick.com/disinvectant.

i'd like to throw in the mix LAMB! anyone love these brits like me?

I like their self-titled album, but after that, it just doesn't do much for me.

I agree. I love the self-titled one, but is not as fond of the later stuff, although I love some songs they recorded later on.
