Reviews & Discussion
This is probably one of the best albums ever released.
I can't express how incredible the sounds/manipulations are on this release. I became a member (pain in the ass, can't we just simply post?) for the express purpose of writing this.
Also, as was said with in the CD version comments, some of the best album art ever. If you think the CD art is good, pick up the Vinyl. This also goes with his CZF trilogy vinyl. Awesome design.
8000 BC a must have for anyone into DSP, complexity...

To the rest of us, though, this is a beautiful work of genius. As Otto's first major release, it nearly shattered me to hear it; his obvious mastery of the arrangement of the most unusual sounds ever is like having a circus full of smelly animals, social rejects, and disturbing machinery shoved into your ear. If you've seen any of Rob Zombie's movies, this is the soundtrack he meant to use on the scenes he wanted to make but couldn't translate to pictures and sound.
As far as the album goes, it all sounds the same unless you're intently listening to it all the way through (which is difficult to do unless you have the vinyl version and can look at the amazing gatefold cover art). Seriously, though, I treasure my Schirach albums almost as much for the art as for the music!
Sounds that caught my attention:
Mr. Soundwave's interspersion of words in various tracks
D3 - Insectdezyde Juice -> the bass-in-trunk vibration sample
