I first encountered it several years earlier in Coil's album "Worship the 
Glitch."  Yes, the hooded guy in Linz - or not in Linz.  It was amusing 
then, but now the word's more standardized overuse risks ossification into 
formula, a distress which any in experimental music will pray to avoid.  To 
be in-fashion is to be about-to-be-out-of-fashion.  To be caught in the 
specimen jar of classificatory zeal is less fun for the bug than for the 
scientist.
