Yeah, I agree, BUT this album is also almost entirely devoid of melodic
content. Accelerator was better, IMHO. The few bits that are melodic are
sampled -- i.e. Pod Room's main riff is right out of "Of These, Hope
reprise)" by Peter Gabriel (and Petey does a much better job adding
percussion to it than FSOL's bleeps and squawks).. and the main sample that
repeats all the way through the dub track is from a Hawkwind album --
but the production and overall sound, the atmospheres they create, are all
as great as you say and I recommend it to those who don't have it yet.
