According to a friend of mine, whose a self-proclaimed big fan, "it's their
thing man - they take other's stuff and like, recycle it."
That's why they're "front line assembly." They take things that are
popular, or on the "front line" of music, and reassemble it.
It's a nice idea, but it usually sounds more like jacked beats over
uninspired industrial. I prefer Negativland any day.
