it compares very well. 8 tracks (i think, don't have the cd handy), that can almost be treated like one long piece, i think the vinyl is mastered as on track per side. same strong melodies, similar strings, more piano, less guitar/glockenspiel freakout. track one (only) uses the found sound approach, some brimstone and fire preacher ranting about peace and such, a bit more cut up than normal, great stuff. two tracks feature vocals proper, the second one a bit more successfuly than the first, imo, which tends slightly towards a generic indie whine, but not enough to spoil the overall effect. -martin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
