I hear you on this. This album is complete trash. I really enjoyed Middle of Nowhere, and was hoping for an even better progression from these guys, but they decided to take a right hand turn into the alleyway of no-talent. For any Orbital fans on the list, do NOT buy this record. Ugh. -mark Rob Salit wrote:
