Has anyone bought S7's _Power_Of_7_ CD? I have the two CD-singles, and they're quite good, (I esp. like "Interstate," as it reminds me a bit of a funkier Stereolab with its Neu! backdrop), so should I get the CD? Also, I purchased Squarepusher's "Port Rhombus" CDEP, and I thought the first two tracks were pretty decent, but not enough to make me want to buy the full-length. On the other hand, the last one, "Significant Others," I thought was outstanding! Given this, should I plunk down for the _Feed_Me_Weird_Things_ CD? Thanks for any reviews and other useful information to help me with my purchasing decisions. -- Adam J Weitzman ----- Individual, Inc. ----- weitzman@individual.com "I love the music of the 20th century!" - Bruce Willis, "12 Monkeys"

Feed me weird things is similar to Port Rhombus, in variety and style. There's plenty of dark'n gloomy crunchy percussion on the full-length, but a variety of freeform jazz, jungle and cheese to pad the noise. For you, I'd recommend trying it before you put a bill down.

Yeah yeah yeah. According to Rob @ Future Sounds, The Power of Seven will be getting a domestic release in a couple of weeks. .grant.h.horne .http://delta.is.tcu.edu/~ghhorne/
