Marijus, Sep 28, 2003

Id name it as the most serious work of The Orb. This album was one of a few that pushed me into the world of electronics. And it completely doesnt matter that more than five years have already passed - it doesnt loose its strength. Because it simply cant. Up till today I find and find new and new things in that music each time I listen.
And thats just a one side. The most easily seen one. There is also another side of the coin...And that is what astonished me completely. But that is a secret surprise for the ones that were born to hear... A MUST for those who cant live without MUSIC.
