Personally I find myself digging a lot of music where elements from different genres are combinated (as mentioned Igorrr, Hesus Attor or Fantômas, for example), so I didn't need to get "lured" into it. :-) But I scarcely explore music via Bandcamp and such anyway.
When you say "not a full-on copycat", what exactly are you referring to? Is there any similar stuff out there? Would like to listen to that as well :-)
There's no stuff like this, as far as I know. What I meant is that it doesn't copy a complete sound, but arguably does copy elements. Which goes for all music in varying degrees, but I just don't think this band really makes it its own. It sounds incoherent to me; like bits of not-so-original music were "copypasted", instead of carefully applied to form something new. I just don't feel its heart/spirit/soul. As for the lured in thing... well, the tags and imagery are what drew me in initially; my favorite bands are usually hard to classify, so I always get excited when I see unusual tag combinations. I just feel cheated by 'em this time around.
for your health
