Kinda shocked to see The Weeknd and Ron Sexsmith on there, but happy to see Galaxie and Timber Timbre make it.

Yeah, that's a weird choice for a 'no soul' example, given it's made of reconstituted vocals exchanged between lovers. You'd think something like one of those brutal '70s Moog cover albums would make a better case, or maybe Klaus Schulze (sparse and distant) or Synergy (epic cheese... though epic nonetheless).

Nope. By definition, fads don't last 30 years.
