Absolutely essential, Telefon Tel Aviv are heading to perfection. Among the glitchy beats that have formed into their trademark, TTA offers shoegaze-type wall-of-sound guitars, ethereal female vocals and melancholic male vocals that form a soup that carries through the albums without any sign of being uninnovative or (in any way) boring.

Probably the only negative thing i can come up with this record are the kind-of-outdated drums in the beginning of American Analog Set remix, that actually turns out to be one of the best tracks on the album, also the little unnecessary heaviness in the end of the Ammocontact mix, but other than that, this record is very close being a perfect electronic album.
