Comments:

Generally, this album is a bit mellower than ex:el, mainly because of the choice of sounds I think. Some tracks on this album could very well fit on ex:el, but some are noticably softer. This time around they've worked with Ian McCullogh of Echo & The Bunnymen ('Moses') and sampled Joy Division ('Contrique'), UB40 ('One In Ten') and some Paul Weller band ('10 x 10') and about a million other things.

A good album, but somewhat weaker than ex:el. Highlights apart from the singles tracks include 'Plan 9', 'Moses', 'Europa', 'Colony' and the wacky 'Sexy Synthesizer'.
