I'd just like to point something out, even though it's probably bleedin' vious... What with all the Aphex hype, it was pretty clear to me that the press and the public were breathlessly waiting for SAW2 so that they could be amazed by it's mediocrity and expose his success as dumb luck (or smart timing/ marketing). In effect, the backlash was ready to strike... and the old boy hasn't suffered a scratch. SAW 2 worked, which upon listening to it, is quite understandable... but rather bizarre, eh? So, looks we can't all get on with our lives yet...his integrity is intact. Like he cares --Seofon
