I just mean to a degree. Enough to cause a bit of label confusion. Like how progressive rock often doesn't mean rock that aims to progress the genre of rock music, but rather tends to refer to bands that really, really like Genesis.
I've heard a fair amount of music labelled as avant garde or experimental that sounded far more familiar than it should for something that supposedly aims to work in uncharted territory.
There's plenty of artists to challenge my statements, of course. Avant garde/experimental just feels like an unearned label at times.
