_fsck_ (a UNIX command meaning "file system check") is a terrifically
disjointed mish-mosh of noise, static and blips.  Take a Ryoji Ikeda
recording, chop it up into miniscule bits, and rearrange in random
order.  The sound of computers arguing with each other over bitstreams
and bandwidth.  I think this is FM's best, most well-executed release.

If you have RealAudio, you should be able listen to all 99 tracks on the
CD at their website for this album:

For some reason, though, my installation of RA doesn't appear to be able
to retrieve the data.  It might be down right now.
