Sorry, but gotta agree with Mr. Tonger here. I don't own the
disc personally (thank god) but the radio station does, and it sounds
less than fulfilling. For new music, some of it is alright, but with
names like LFO, Graham Massey, and Dilinja remixing it should stand out
as a necessary to any collection. Unfortunately it does not. Yes, it
does have its moments, but they are few and far between when compared to
the likes of "Debut" and "Post". Anyway, different strokes for different
folks -- how did ya'll like the tracks "Charlotte" and "I Go Humble"?
Just compare the new disc to those songs and see what I mean when I
summarize it as substandard.
