mmm... i think, to me it seemed they had so many ideas and not enough time to develop them properly. just when i though "this could lead to something beautiful" they dropped it and started something else. sometimes i felt that they were showing off a bit too much, "look how many wickedly crazy things we can do to sounds and melodies!", and in the process lost sight of what is beautiful and what is merely interesting. right, that's it, it's not beautiful enough. to me, of course. this is not to say that i didn't LIKE it, it's just that i didn't like it as much as, say, "garbage ep" and "peel session". hs (i meant to send this mail earlier, but my account was acting up again) ______________________________________________________ i go BA-BA-BA-BA-BA-BA every time you walk in the room
