somebody mentioned "i care because you do" in a post yesterday and it made
me decide to go back for my bi-annual listen to that record ...
i think it might be my vote for the most solid electronic record of the
1990's. but without turning this into a Spin/VH1 style artist-cock
suck-fest let me explain what i think makes this record so so strong.
since the material spans such a great amount of time (4 years by the dates
on the back) there is such a wide variety of sounds and styles represented
that it's hard to digest it all in one, two, three, probably even fifty
sittings. so it gives you something to come back to. i notice something
different every time i listen to it. like how there's this really nice
melody hidden behind that squeal and chaos that runs all through
'ventolin'. or the macintalk computer voices buried in the mix on 'cow
cud is a twin'.
anyway, more albums should be as faceted and layered as this one is.
