Wait till you hear it and you'll be just as disapointed I'm sure. It's utterly self indulgent crap, easily the worst thing they've ever done. I listened to Snivelisation a bunch of times when it first came out trying to get a handle on it and hoping I would end up liking it more than Orbital 2 but that never happened, the album is simply too uneven. It starts out nice, then by the middle its gone astray and when they try to make ammends by the last song its too late. In my opinion Orbital still hasn't topped Halcyon. And yes, I have everything they've ever done. Oh well... /""'' /"'RESH Live and Direct from the G-Spot Orange County, California, USA
