I only have the MP3s so far, getting my CD tomorrow if psyshop are fast enough :-)

 

Anyway, I really like this album. Along with the new wizzy noise it's one of the best albums to grace the psy-trance scene in a long time. "Coming Soon" was on a 12" on blueroom (BR088) back in 99 (or possibly '00?) along with "Intercorporal Stimulator" which is on this album. The tracks are generally more delta-ish, while keeping that trademark blend of driving percussion and awesome atmospheres that x-dream are known for. And, of course, MONSTER bass :-)

 

Apart from Intercorporal Stimulator I've had "Irritant" and "Peters Hoover" for a few months now, but I think they actually aren't among my top picks from this album; right now "Fall Ou (Dong edit)" is my favourite for its amazing atmospheres, as well as "Thorazin" for its percussion work.

 

Overall it's like a blend of the new wizzy noise (but darker and harder), the delta and the "classic" x-dream sound. It has its flaws, but I wouldn't miss it for the world.
