If I were to judge RDJ by his work under the alias of Polygon Window, I would come to the inevitable conclusion that he blows chunks. Now, before I incur the wrath of RDJ fanatics I will say this: 1) the Quoth single ain't half bad 2) his work as Aphex Twin, is for the most part excellent. Don't judge RDJ by his AI pieces, his talent is best revealed in SAW I. This album is definately in my top ten albums list, and is well worth paying the import CD price. Buy it!! khannan suntharam kxs28972@bayou.uh.edu
