A point I think is worth noting is that Linux software is far more likely to be FOSS, and FOSS is far less likely to have dedicated designers. LibreOffice wouldn't look out of place in 2002 for example, but it's not because of the platform/SDK it runs on. Whereas Spotify most definitely has a whole team of design staff.
That aside, if the rest of my OS has a "grey boxes" look, I would like my software to have a "grey boxes" look.
Sure, your design may be pretty, but if it looks and works completely differently to my other applications and the OS itself, I consider that a pretty huge point against it.
