Hopefully most of you got the in-joke that The KLF stuck in about sampling. Having been forced to destroy their previous record due to copyright infringement (rather ironic when KLF stands for Kopyright Liberation Front) they sampled heavily from the big players in the litigation stakes, only to get one over on those overpaid and talentless idiots (that particularly includes you Bono) by sampling crowd noise and anything that is completely unrelated to the actual music itself. I'm curious whether they cleared the samples and paid royalties or stuck it out to see if anyone had the balls to risk negative publicity and drag them into court (not to mention a class action suit from people who attended the gig and feel they should be entitled to a share of the royalties!).

A great record whose entertainment is beyond the wit and self-assurance of the average snobby late-teens "IDM" enthusiast who is afraid to admit he plays Pokemon to his friends. This record is not to be taken too seriously, not much KLF stuff outside of the early singles, 'Chill Out' and 'Its Grim Up North' is. It is however good music, with catchy loops, sterling production and even some hints of Acid buried under all that poppy varnish.
