a change of style is right! "present" was one of my favorite idm
albums of 1996, and i can honestly say that "via nostra" SUCKS. the
first to track are all right, but the rest of the album is a huge
disappointment! one track is the most pathetic attempt at dub i'v ever
heard. basically, the flaws of this album are: the
melodies/songwriting are weak and the production/soundz are cheasy.
let's hope s.u. get back on track for the next lp
