How would you compare the 12" to the album then?  I found the 12" pretty
lively and energetic, and fused pretty well between the sounds and vocals;
I'm starting to wonder if that 12" is just the best of the album or...?

It is possible that they seem fused because there are two remixes along
with the songs that abstract the vocals into glitchy-weirdness moreso than
I imagine the album might...

Do you think that the vocals on Model 500's new "mind and body" LP mix
well with the electronics?  What's your take on that stuff?  (how about
Aux88 for that matter)
