What an utter disappointment. Every single track on here sounds like what I used to imagine "Battle of the Bands" was as a kid. Two bands fighting it out accoustically for dominance. The Orbital/Kirk Hammett version of Satan sounds like something Gavin Hardkiss would come up with for a live gig. Some bozo playing screaming guitar while the DJ plays "Satan" in the background. Although I was looking forward to this album, I just find myself wishing the "other" band on each track would SHUT UP.
