Hmm perhaps you're right. But I wonder how many first time Aphex listeners are *actually* going to enjoy this album. I mean fair enough if it was RDJ, or even Come To Daddy - but I don't think this one's got that same mass appeal. That said, it could be that I'm just over-exposed and therefore unable to imagine it with a fresh pair of ears. By the way, anyone have any guesses on what song will make it as the single for the album? (My personal favourite is "vordhosbn" CD1 Track2)
