no i don't have a set opinion on them...but most of what i've heard of theirs has been crap. Doesn't mean I think that everything they put out in the future will be crap. I said i liked their split on fatcat....so i've not given up on them.

well it's quite arrogant to assume that because someone doesn't like something it's because they don't "understand" it...whatever that is supposed to mean.

No it's my statement and one others. That's not several. It's bad form to attribute quotes to someone that didn't make them.

I think a bigger problem is sweeping generalizations...like you just made. You are making the assumption I don't like it because it's "unknown and bizarre" It seems that you think that if people dont' like a certain type of music because it's too strange for them. There is nothing strange about the V/VM album...or bizarre. Have you even listend to the album? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
