I've just "acquired" this record and I'm really impressed, it's simpler than To megatherion and Pandemonium but it has more impact, in my opinion,
perhaps becaus of the sound that is really good.

It is a good album. Kinda sounds like a "prequel" to Pandemonium in a wierd way.....
Saw them last week in London and they were awesome.
Played mainly older stuff, with only a couple of tracks from Mono.
Got my phone smashed in the pit, but ended up with a better one through the insurance.

"Raided" the vinyl classical department of our local charity store, and found some niceties:
-Saint-Saëns complete work for cello and orchestra
-Villa-Lobos concert for guitar and orchestra + 2 preludes for guitar, and L. Bernsteinsymphonic dancesfrom West Side Story
-Webern: 5 Satze for string quartet op 5, Schoenberg piano pieces op 11, berg violin concert
-Secular and religious music from Middle Ages and Renaissance, some Josquin and Machaut
-Renaissance music, some Palestrina and Monteverdi
Nice to have some early music, which is hard to find, especially at an affordable price!

Oh wow! Does it have games?
We don't have much positive experience with our insurance companies. Once, my bicycle was stolen out of the shed in the garden, which was unlocked at
the time. The insurance wouldn't pay out because the shed wasn't attached to the house.

Insurance is a scam with no kind of governmental oversight, at least here in the states. Here you have to have insurance to do just about anything:
drive a car, get sick, sell anything, buy anything, hire people to help you if you've got a business. And then the payouts are skint even if you've
paid top $ for years. Everybody in the business is only in it for themselves and their own retirement nest egg and will do whatever it takes to make
their quota. Dog eat dog, darwinian escalation to the bottom of the barrel. Yet, the way people treat you if you don't have the correct insurance,
even when yer sick is practically criminal. I swear I'm not sure which is worse: legal insurance companies or illegal 'protection' rackets.
oh, woops! last music I bought were the 2 disc versions of bowie's outside and earthling and funkadelic's hardcore jollies and live at the
meadowbrook 1971. rounding out the catalogue. yepyepyep.

Most recent purchases are Saint-Saëns Mass for 4 voices, the music to Roman de Fauvel (that's a medieval novel about an evil horse) and Terry Bozzio's
Chamber Music / Opus 1 recordings with the Metropole orchestra.
