Recoil = idm? Possibly... thought never crossed my mind though. His first
album is more ambient in a Philip Glass-esque fashion, while the second
"Bloodline" is too variable to really pin any sort of classification scheme
on it. Which is goodin theory. I remember the brief period in 1992 when I
bought this along with a couple of Frontline Assembly albums and noticed
some similarities, except Alan put quite some effort into not having all
the songs sound the same. (This was before I discovered the wonders of
Delirium, so no pro-FLA flames, please). I still have mixed feelings about
Bloodline but "Freeze" is a true classic and makes the purchase worth it no
matter what the rest of the songs are.
