Firstly, I'd like to point out, this is very VERY 1991 in both sound, and humor. Brought me a nice little bit of nostalgic joy for the era I barely remember.

Secondly, I liked it. Especially the song 'Automaker'. Mostly a rather straight noise metal type band, but I liked the little jumps here, and there, and the odd strangely transposed prerecorded clips.

My only major gripe is the production was piss poor. Very staticy, but not abrasive enough to justify such a flat timbre. In one hand, it adds to the cynical attitude, on another, it waters it down. Not enough for me to enjoy it as I did, though.

Once I get things sorted out, I'll send another to somebody. I'm looking at Mondo Bungle because I think I get his tastes, and feel I could open his world a bit.
