I couldn't disagree more! You should listen to that record if you get a
chance, as obviously there are two camps here! It won't be for you if you
aren't into a little dub, weird bleepy electronic noise and experimental
jazz (Miles, '70-s Roach). The Hi-Ryze seems uninteresting compared to he
Germ 2LP, IMO, though it is better than most of the stuff out there on a
broader scale...

This is an incredible 2lp! Melodic, weird and groovy at even levels...

In general, the GPR stuff is of a totally consistently high quality; worth
buying blindly if you don't expect to have any other opportunities
later...
