Yeah I'd love to see/hear some examples here; I mostly listen to small-to-mid-level black/doom/trad/power bands and haven't noticed this type of standardization of sound.

It's possible I don't have the ear for it though, so now I wish the article had posted how it made this type of analysis so I could run some of my albums through it myself.

I very simple way is to throw a track into a DAW and see if the drum hits line up perfectly with the "grid". Most DAW's have a grid background so you can see. If it's perfect for the whole song, then it's definitely quantized to death (pun unintended, though does sound quite kvlt).
