>which ones stand out from ten years ago?? not a whole lot. ten years ago doesn't seem to have been a very good time for any genre of music. pre-grunge, post-glam. hiphop from the turn-of-the-decade also lacked. or maybe we just don't have enough historical distance. 5 years ago music like the smiths or new order would've made me vomit, now i can't get enough. my Skinny Puppy collection still makes me happy, and they fit into "10 years ago" (as well as 15 years ago). i tend to think they are pretty darn IDM if you compare them to other industrial music. closer to autechre than KMFDM if you ask me. same goes with Suicide, closer to panasonic than the punk era. i still haven't recovered from my shock when, after first hearing a suicide recording, i discovered how old they are. so i guess suicide can be considered as well. tomas
