Have you heard the new TTA record? I haven't myself, considering it's not out yet. I did see them perform live last Friday in Detroit, however, and it was a great show. The vocals fit really well. Also, the one available piece of work by TTA where Lindsay's vocals are featured (Immediate Action #8, on "Sound in a Dark Room") is one of my top records of this year. If it kills IDM, I guess I'll be happy to listen to whatever's still alive if it sounds like that record. peace, bvl -- http://www.chromedecay.org || http://www.thinkbox.ca --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
