I'm quite surprised to hear the positive reviews. I paid $27 for the
import which turned out to be 8 tracks long and only 64 minutes.
So with that sort of investment I really really wanted to hear more
clever beautiful Orbital arrangements and melodies (The Box!!!).
After waiting so long to hear something new from them only to be
somewhat disappointed with this new outing.
Anyone who liked Orbital in the past should definitely *LISTEN* (as I
didn't) to this album before purchasing.
I spent $13 picking up the Soul Oddity that I had intended to get
since I saw Phoenicia in Hollywood and this is the only reason I
don't feel like that shopping trip was a waste. That and Jimi
Tenor's Organism.
