Yeah they did not produce what The absolute truth. Without 4 Hero, no darkness, for instance... >too sugar coated. Were you put off by the 'live' sounding first CD? I What album is that? AFAIK their first album was way back in 1992... had Mr. Kirk Your Son Is Dead on it, for instance... second was Parallel Universe, in 1994... I haven't followed them as of late (or much music), but would you be referring to their first Talkin' Loud release? >Then, on the second disc, they make sure you have not forgotten *they are >wicked drum programmers*. More electronic, hard step type beat I seem to remember hearing that they will play the kind of break they want live on a drum kit, then sample it, speed it up, loop it, layer it, etc. Actually, I listened to some of it on the website, and tell you the truth I wasn't completely impressed either. But I know I'll just have to hear it for myself on vinyl... Kreig
