This is the only worthwhile link I've been able to find so far. Unfortunately, it's in Espanol, and mine sucks: http://chilerock.uchile.cl/discos/planv.html I've found one Brazilian record store on the Net, searching their stock turned up no Plan V. I'm still pursuing this. Here's the humorous translation courtesy of Babelfish: Plan V and Black Dog " Plan Black V Dog " Only rates rested and repetitive until the hypnosis is possible to find in this disc, in which the band Chilean-Argentinean Plan V Perhaps shares furrows and ideas with the English project Black Dog. the same rest that proposes a life far from the recitales in stages and the sobreexhibition (something new in the case of Gustavo Cerati, ex- Stereo Soda water and visible face of the South American quartet). The first which it calls attention is, in any case, the title page art of this production that adds to the album " Plan V ", debut of the project completed with Andr?s Bucci, Cristi?n Powditch and Guillermo Ugarte. A triangular cut in its box (as a arrow), it manages to wake up the curiosity of those who we did not have an pleasant sensation after listening to a first work disordered and full of pseudoimprovised plains, tied by a continuous and demoralizing pulse: the minimal big drum. " Finger Data " and " Doorman " is the new creations of Plan V, total of groove of low semi-dub plus a simple and difficult rythmical programming, one of the characteristics of which intelligent is denominated " techno ". Like corolario, one remezcla of " Crew member " (subject of its first disc) done by Black Dog transports to us by primitive rituals closing the disc. The conclusion is quite clear: Black Dog works far better in its own works; and Plan V, no. A correct disc, but without identity. Yes, I know that to speak of " own styles " in the electronic scope he is somewhat complex. Nevertheless, people like Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin, The Orb and Brian Eno they have demonstrated that it is the key of the importance.
