I downloaded a few tracks from Napster a few months ago that were Alec Empire + Techno Animal. I love the songs and have looked for the album, but can't seem to find anything out about it. I don't know anything about Alec Empire, and I've been behind on Techno Animal, so I'm wondering if these mp3s were mis-labelled or something. Some of the songnames: Temple of the Yellow Snake, Kamikaze Space Programmer, Ultrasonic, Caucasian Deathmask (my favorite title). Anyone? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
