This album is very good, very happy melodies, maybe a bit different from all

the other artists. Track 8, The Dawning, a very quiet soft track with good

vibes

Washington is a good track, if you like it shamelessly goa-cheesy with a very

simple bunga-bunga bass line. The rest, I just can't even get into in a

slumming-kind of way. SSO is not my thing, but if it's yours, you'll like

this record.

if you ever get the chance to see these guys live, go there, even if this is

too cheesy for you. they do a live performance with about 20 or 30 different

gongs, which is among the most enchanting things you can feed to your ears.

unfortunately, this only shows briefly here, during the last track. otherwise,

i have a soft spot for the cheesiest track of all, the dawning, pure popmusic.

the stompers dont do it for me

Neanderthal Love and Hovek Olam are awesome tracks. My big complaint about

S.S.O.'s work is the severely cheesy vocal samples they use. I mean, what the

fuck?

In my oppinion this is one of the best albums of "This Style" osf psy

trance........with great effects and complex samplers in perfect

harmony........Get it'nd enjoy it!

S.S.O. is really hit or miss, aren't they? There are a couple really good songs

on this album. Some other songs would be really good IF THE SAMPLES WEREN'T SO

GODDAMNED SILLY. Otherwise, their sounds have that great fizzy, crispy

quality, their rhythms are decent, and the melodies are pretty nice. One of

the best things about this band: Hoping they'll have matured by their next

album, because if they have it's bound to be a good one.

I got a chance to listen to S.S.O live at Arvika in sweeden a week ago..they

are totaly different live than on CD, on CD S.S.O is really boring..but live

they REALLY ROCKS! even if they guys are a bit old..(40-50 years...) BIG

gong-gongs, lot of live drumming, synth-tweaking, screaming weard psycedelic

sounds! it was awesome, the best live show I've ever seen..

 

I would recomend you to use your money to see them live instead of buying the

CD.

same as everyone really...brilliant live, best act I saw at boom

2000 but the cd sucks shit, actually thats quite harsh, my favourite

neanderthal nliove is too short and there others that could be blinders if it

weren't for the hideous samples which almost sound as if a five year old has

been let loose with a sampler,well maybe a ten yr old
