someone needs to tell funkstorung to cut that "hidden track" shit out.
it was surprising when we first heard it on a nirvana album in 1992, or that
tool abum or that cracker album, etc, etc, etc... but god, it's been done SO
many times by now that it's NOT SURPRISING AT ALL anymore. it's just like
"oh crap, the last track is 16 minutes long, guess what cd i can never play
on shuffle..."
and i could see it still being justified, if maybe the "hidden track" was
like the best track on the album, or in a completely different style or
something... but no. the "secret track" on Disctruction is totally mediocre.
not in any way surprising or worth that damn 9 minute wait or the annoyance
of having to get up and hold down the "search" button.
it's over. it's tired. "secret tracks" = yawn.
putting a secret track on your album in the year 2000 is the equivalent of
saying "did i do that?" in your best urkel voice to impress people in the
year 2000.
