Well, Bombadin/Marathon is even worse. Repetitive nonsense. But then again, once you've heard Global Communication's _Pentamerous Metamorphosis_, everything else sounds second rate (except 76:14, which is equally magnificent). As far as I know _Gorgeous_ is still their most recent album. -bob OnNow: G.C. - Pent. Meta. - Beta Phase (heavenly, man)
