Just got State of the Nu-Art 2, on blue planet. Firstly, does anyone know whether this actually just came out, or did it only just make it to Reach'n Records in Sydney? Second question: Disk 2 has 12 tracks in its tracklisting, but the actual CD only has 11 tracks. What's more, the track lengths don't match up - not that they do properly on Endlessnessism either, it's very hard to do that prior to the final CD Mastering - but the mismatch is quite extreme, with Witchman's mix of Jammin' Unit listed as 10:46 and only making it to 6:13. A couple of other tracks seem to be shorter than they're meant to be (not that they sound it!), with the others being all a few seconds longer, except that the Friends, Lovers and Family track (#7) doesn't seem to exist at all (well that's the way *I* interpret it, it may in fact be a different track that was missed...) Does anyone know if this was a pressing mistake for the whole CD or a printing mistake or what? Does anyone else have a copy of the album with the same problem, or indeed *without* the problem? Perturbed, Peter. np: Massive Attack - Mezzanine. I disagree with whoever from before, I think it's a fantastic album but that "Teardrop" is one of the most beautiful things they've ever done. Liz Frazer works her magic as usual.
