If anything, L&R have an amazing sense of rhythm, in the good old
fashioned sense of keeping the beat; remember the great riffs of
"Kundalini Express"? If they choose to go the ambient groove route, great!
Their latest stuff was fairly drab anyway.
Greg Earle <earle@isolar.Tujunga.CA.US> mentioned a certain band that
should take more chances, and having seen his post on alt.music.something
or other about it, I wish they would too. (For those of us who
occasionally equate the 'i' in 'idm' with industrial, the band in question
is Skinny Puppy.) At one time, I was especially enamored of SP's
"Download" and Godflesh's "Pure II" - about as ambient as you can get, in
that very abstract way of just waiting for noise.
