I thought there was only one (in sides). Besides, didn't times fly come out after snivilisation? I thought the box was pretty good as well, and even In Sides had some nice tracks. I wouldn't be complaining so much, but you can't help but feel a little let-down when a band you really rate releases something that just doesn't do it for you at all - I mean, I had some nigh-on religious experiences seing them live. Admittedly, I seem to be in a minority - In Sides was their best selling album ever after all. Go figure. > eric, getting ready for a solid month of orbital fights It's all personal taste really - pointless arguing about it. Dan Shoebridge. np: Deadly Avenger
