For me, I can related to it very much... im not speaking of the psychodelic edge it has, but that i can related to the melodies. I remember reading in an interview that they create melodies that you are familiar with but can't quite place. IMHO, a loopy beat is alright with me if its accompanied by a nice little tune. I enjoy the little voices that creep up here and there on the LP. Especially the Hellinterface track on Mask2. If I dig hard enough, I probably have the original version of "Trapped" somewhere in my collection. Yes, "Aquarius" was on the LP but in a slightly different version. At first, I thought it was the same but after a few listens its quite obvious that it is different than the LP version. As for "Chinook" it was only exclusive to the seven inch. Yeah, before you give it a final stamp of disapproval, try reading some of the interviews to get a better insight to the Boards and what they are trying to acieve, then give it another listen.
