having previously written off the album as being cack i thought i'd give it another chance. I cant believe i said that, its a great album, but its better to listen to it as a whole track. divided up into seperate pieces, it loses some of its appeal. I think the one track that put me of it in the first place was track 15-shadenfraude or something, which still sounds a bit dodgy and the album could have done without it. however this opinion is is probably influenced by my hatred of certain synth sounds which to my ears sound a bit cheap and nasty. the background beat in the track is pretty cool, but that synth. sorry to add to this overdone thread, but i thought a positive review might be of some use.sorry if it isn't. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

reviews of ANY sort are always of some use. they are vastly superior than the overanalytical discussions regarding music pirating, etc. -mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
