I thought that a1 (the A's) was pretty blah, but I think that a2 is amazingly beautiful.... it has an intense ... though sparse ... painful beauty to it... the wandering bag pipe'ish sound along with the long drawn out deep strings and the nice high synth in and out... lovely... and at the same time... I loved both of the b sides (esp b1 and that dolemite sample)... over all though I think that is a fantastic 12". my $0.02... phil
