This album is very old school industrial. It reminds me of old Skinny Puppy, more their instrumental. It is very dark. I would have liked to have heard some vocals, but the samples really bring it together.

Digital Leprosy works very well for me, I love the atmosphere of it. I get the same feeling myself sometimes!-) As for the second track, well something has lasted well over nearly twenty years of the passage of time, and I never thought a pump could sound so interesting. I quite like concrete music as well, so I have probably listened to a few such devices for real. Seriously though, it captures the essence pretty good. The Decision, with that great start, even reminds me of the Iraq enquiry, with Tony Blair... 'It was a decision' (see my profile page playlist for further detail). In fact, it almost seems prophetic given the timescale. Intriguing... and sadly, still topical and relevant. Track four, Tweak The Twinkle, has a lovely earthy bass, and almost an acid jazz feel to it. Quite straightforward and easily digestible. It is interesting to see how a band changes (or not) over time. Mainstream success suddenly landing on an artist seems to do the trick, though in my view rarely with good effect. However, here there appears to be a certain consistency back and forth over the years. Finally, there is Blood Of An Antelope, again with well placed samples and a well paced track. Once more, fairly simple, or so it seems, but then all the more effective for that. Keep on building up those layers...
