    Why is this not available on vinyl still? I don't want to buy a bootleg. I want the real deal.

      This album got me hooked on FSOL. I discovered it in november 1997 in Berlin, whilst being on excursion (I was 27 back then). I me prelistening to it in a second hand shop on headphones. When returning from Berlin, I must have listened to the CD all weekend. It's a milestone in my discography, gave me new perspectives on listening & making music.

        An attack on your senses and your well being. You have to be very demented to own and like this album. A very intense journey. want to listen to armagedon? Listen to track 7 and then to 8. Fsol were known for being a little eccentric and at times psychedelic. Well this will be the pinnacle of their creativity in both. Less techno than Accelerator, pkays better through than Lifeforms and doesnt included Electronika sound of Dead Cities. All very good but ISDN is where its at
