Mirror, DJ Kicks?
I hear that it's supposed to be more like those. I did hear the David Byrne cut on the radio, - the lyrics seemed kind of dumb.
That doesn't bother me too much. (Except the lyrics on the "Blackouts in LA tonight" on the new Hybrid). Did you hear that one with Peter Hook blasting away on the opening cut? It's awesome, - IMO.
Thanks for the tip on the Moby too. One to grab up. Some Young Guy turned me on to the Baroness. He got me her first CD Electric Manor and I bought Electric Manor II used. It's not as good as Electric Manor I. EM1 is raging good.....
Cheers T~
is this the real me, or a mere facsimile?

I've got a copy of EM1 on the way - Tony 07:44:05 03/01/05 (5)
Got it off Ebay for $0.75. I figured at that price I'd give it a try.
I'll let you know.

    Electric Manor 1. Sorry I referred to it as EM1, as that is how you referred to it in the parent post.
    I'll let you know what I think.

      Ah..
      I should wake up. Were there any more? I just have a burned copy...
      Thanks,

        There are 2 currently out there.
        One at 0.99GBP and one at 0.08 US.
        Even less than what I paid. :-)

        I didn't see it on Ebay. I don't like to do business there anyway...

Well, I was a little hesitant at first, as they do drag in a few guest vocalists. Things like that make me suspiscious of the album's quality. Believe it or not, I really like the Byrne song. The one that bothers me is the Perry Ferrel one on the album. He sounds a bit forced trying to do the whole reggae thing. IMO, the tracks without the high profile guest vocalists are probably the best.
I will look into the Baroness.
How is the Hybrid album? I have Wide Angle and do enjoy it.

- Hybrid is pretty great.... - Sordidman 16:56:03 02/25/05 (2)
  Of course, I'm a HUGE Hooky fan, so if he's on it. I laughed so hard the first time I heard it. The rest of the CD pales in comparison but it's pretty similar to Wide Angle. It's a good follow up, but the Peter Hook appearance makes it very, very, good.
  I bought it with the latest Unkle and the latest Junkie XL. Those two got a ton more time on the CDP, - but the Hybrid is coming back around....
  Cheers,
