'the last lie i ever told' (the song you're talking about) is from chessie's first album 'signal series' which i've only heard the couple first tracks of. i own his second album, 'meet'. this guy is a bit all over the place, each chessie song is actually fairly different from the last one. it's crunchy, a bit noisy, & unfortunately it doesn't go very far composition-wise. the sounds are interesting though & it's sort of hard to pin down genre-wise (that's a compliment.) investigate, you may like it. ~ david --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
