i second this recommendation... i saw it the other day in the record store
filed under hia, but didn't remember seeing anything about it. i bought it
on a whim anyway since i love hia and the cover and title looked
interesting (you know you've got a music buying problem when...) while i
liked bobby's collaborations with deep space network, and thought the one
with pete namlook was okay if not great, this new one is definitely the
winner of the bunch. i remember reading something about it somewhere
(could i get any less specific?) that said all the sounds were created
basically from residual noise found lurking in their gear... hence the
title 'nothing'. when i heard that i expected an album that would fit in
the "interesting... but i don't listen to it much" category. instead, i
would never have guessed its origins, and while they make an interesting
story, the album stands on its own. definitely worth checking out...
