I tend to agree. The samples do serve their purpose in terms of a sort of Goa heyday reminder in a not- so Goa time during its release. Indeed, it is an LP about drugs, and yes they are silly. It's not unlike remaking a classic movie in this day and age. The music present is not all bad- quite moving at times and smart at others, but the old Goa thing they tried to do here isn't quite as effective as it could have been say, if it was released in the late 1990's.

One of the first psytrance albums I've heard. This sounded so good at first, but shortly after those stupid samples started to bug the hell out of me, "take the red pill" blabla. This could've been a real classic without the samples.

Isn't it pretty ridiculous that some psytrance producers, even in the year of 2002, still could not get rid of the part naive, part boring "mind-altering drug vs. hippie culture" thing introduced in the early days of goa trance?

If 1200 mics just would have left away all that ridiculous and childish spoken voice samples ("on the 7th day, shiva created hashish") this would be such an excellent album. The presented music would have deserved to be presented more seriously. All this stupid drug babbeling really destroys the experience, at least for me.

Wheither the songs match their drug or if the whole idea is a bit silly is open for discussion, but this album is really one of the best psytrance albums ever. Note: the movie "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas" is used as a primary source of soundbites here.
