fah! what do *virgins* know anyway?!
i agree that sciencefiction is the best track on the album-
the other tracks are good but they don't quite live up to the opening
chords of sci-fi... but i actually like that guitar solo, it 
gives the track a bit of a *climax*...

>putting appalling guitar solos on tracks certainly isnt experimental, >so
what exactly are you refering to?

it all depends on the contex, imo... putting guitar solos on 
a detroit techno album would be like playing hip-hop beats to 
classical... both would qualify as experimental... 

later.
