Well first, I can't find what you're talking about in my copy, but
mine is promotional so I'll excuse it. But I think it's a bit harsh to
use the word 'crapola'. I can see being a bit peeved since these are
such mainstream films, but you can't expect FSoL to limit themselves to a
small 'elite' crowd.
I think you have to take what the movies represent, and how they could
have come off, instead of what actually was.

A few words that you disagree with, makes two hours of music, garbage?

One thing that I've learned, is that many groups by signing with large
labels (yes, astralwerks - caroline - virgin) give away total creative
power. Not that this is a special case, because we probably don't know.
There is however that fact that remains.

And the funny thing is that after all of these ramblings, I don't like
the disc. I think there's about 10 minutes of good music, and I'm glad I
didn't buy a copy of it.

no one said you have to agree with the liner notes. They might offend
you, as all words have the power to, but that shouldn't change the music.
