Didn't enjoy this before, but it's pretty good except for the corny first track which sucks.

NME journalist Steven Wells gave it 0/10 and threatened to kill anyone who listened to it, that was his last album on the akai s950 boss dr660 setup i think. he went out and bought some high tech stuff for the time like an akai s6000, eventide dsp 4000 and eventide orville, and a yamaha qy700. wonder if tom saw the review and that's what made him upgrade his studio...
will have to give it a listen, see how it's aged it was supposed to be made with a bass guitar hooked up to the sampler and the strings are triggering the drum beats, that's why it sounds quite loose and weird.

damogen furies is good but it always felt more like a promo piece to accompany the live show, and that the live show was more the 'thing'. live show had ambient interloods inbetween each track that was probably just there to kill time while setting up the next track, but it honestly paced shit out really nicely and felt more complete. the album is good but feels like a bunch of tracks thrown together without much overarching point .. or something ?
not sure. i like damogen but it's not a solid album imo. ufabulum still takes that cake as being a solid album.
probably would be less critical of squarepushers recent offerings if the long gaps/hiatus between albums didn't put so much onus on everything being "the latest offering".

shobaleader one live album i thought was fine, for what it is ((( a live album of squarepusher + band playing squarepusher classics live )). but in no way do i consider it to be 'the latest squarepusher album'.

for some reason most of the sounds on damogen furies sound like they could be on a song from radio one, but with melodies that are typically squarepusher, consequently I don't think it satisfies any intended audience, then again im sure there are people who really love it
