actually it was two tracks; 98 was a cover of "physical" by adam and the ants and 99 was the NIN version of "suck" which i always liked more than any pigface version. </reminiscence> d. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I have a *gasp* Marilyn Manson CD which uses the exact same trick, and yeah, it does sort of make the random feature on the CD player useless with all those empty one second tracks on it on the latest NIN CD however The Fragile there's this odd hidden thing as well, as the CD player suddenly start counting backwards inbetween 2 tracks on the second CD. I think it's somewhere between track 4 & 5 oslt. That hidden track is a really quite piece of weird, creepy ambient bleeps. It's so quite I didn't hear there was anything playing the first few times. Problem is you have to turn up your volume so loud to check it out properly that when the next track starts, you shit yourself. :) -- "progress doesn't come from early risers progress is made by lazy men looking for easier ways to do things" http://n3wjack.blogspot.com http://www.jungletrain.net - 24/7 dnb radio station --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
