Reviews & Discussion
"Testure" is one of the greatest Skinny moments there is, and is definitely a contender for the king of the Puppy hill. It is bundled together here with the "S.F. Mix", which is nothing more than an edited version, which of course can be useful for mixing purposes, but for me it is just a watered down original missing all those great build ups. The B-side consists of "The Second Opinion"; an extremely rhytmic pulsating grind littered with samples that is surprisingly interesting to listen to, and "Serpents", which is more of the same rhytmics but stripped of samples. Both tracks are ok, but let's face it, it is "Testure" that is the true star of this release. And if you already own it on another format, say e.g. the 12" Anthology, you might want to think twice before shelling out for this one too, since it usually commands a high price.
