My reason for asking is } that I spend all my waking hours at the moment studying a couple of mutant } strains of E.coli. Just caught my eye. This is a great EP from '95. There are 4 tracks and here's a brief description of each: A1 "E Coli" - warbling bass keys move into a nice electro beat... then a *very* Severed Heads sounding staccato rhythm is introduced... interesting effects thrown into the mix. A2 "Dyslexia" - sharp fast bass pattern with pounding beats, which would mix nicely with Surgeon... a minimal aggressive feel. B1 "Salems Lot" - dark overtones with minimal, sharp sounding rhythms... a hypnotic keyboard pattern fades in and out throughout. B2 "Crimson Dynamo" - percussion pattern similar to Front 242, which gives the track somewhat of a militaristic feel... a dissonant keyboard line creeps in during the 2nd half... a dark sounding track. I personally like side A best, but the whole EP is very good overall. You should track it down. Thanks for mentioning this 12" because it had been awhile since I pulled it out and gave it a thorough listening! | E r i c | [mail] franse@engr.arizona.edu | | F r a n s | [web] http://engr.arizona.edu/~franse | "The comfort you demanded is now mandatory!" - Jello Biafra
