Hey, I've heard alot of negative things about this album from reviews and such, but many of you seem to love it! Well, I'm not sure if I should buy it...I mean, I loved Confield, and Ep7 to an extenct, and Inc. and Amb, but I can't get into LP5 for some reason... Anyway, is it true that CS is highly repetitive and boring, or is it in fact as good as Confield, or just plain enjoyable? THanks for anyhelp. |

i thought almost all ae was extremely repetitive, with subtle changes being mixed in. |

Did you listen to reviews before buying music before? No? Why start now? It's ESSENTIAL Autechre material. Buy it, shut up and listen. Thank you. :) |

Heh....DaWeeze, I normally just buy music, yes...i HATE reviews. But those reviews described it as "repetitive" and that bothered me, since noone described LP5 as repetitive, and i found it very much so...Confield is more my cup of tea-constantly shifting. I love it...:D |

"It's brutal and stark at times, and most of the pieces take their time to develop, but at its heart, this is some of Autechre's best work. It just takes time to reveal itself." |

chiastic slide is my favourite. its the most consistant of ae's albums, imo. it all works as a whole. |

""In retrospect, Chiastic Slide stands as one of their best records, and is generally considered the great lost electronic record of the 1990's. Its influence on the electronic scene is noticable even today in the work of groups like Four Tet and the Boards of Canada. Even Thom Yorke cites it as an influence. At the time of its release, however, critics were split between calling it brilliant or screaming that it was unlistenable. Nothing records, in sticking with the general botch-job they've done handling things, declined to carry the record at all for American distribution, and for five years, listeners stateside would be forced to pay upwards of $30 for an import copy.

I remember when it first came out - my friends and I would sit around trying to figure out if it was brilliant or just shit. -------------------------------------------- Years later I firmly believe this is as good as anything they've done. It's a breathtaking trip. |

there isnt a bad track on there, its a bit of a 'grower' but its sublime |

Chiastic is a very juicy greasy-sounding album, with lots of beautiful melodic material. One of my Ae top2. The first is LP5. I could not get into it for a long time too, but then, as my chinese grandmother says, BLAM KAIEEE, and my music tastes are something worth speaking of. The repetitiveness is not bad there, it evolves covertly. It's extremely active meditation. |

It's up to you if you liked Chiastic Slide. Before I usually buy CD's I just go to towerrecords.com and hear some clips of it. |

I mean, it's up to you if you want to buy Chiastic Slide. |

|
|
if u liked amber ull like it...quite the same style |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I do not agree. it has much more texture than amber, is further evolved generally. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
???? no way |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought the contrary.... amber is a little better imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Let's not turn this into a discussion, ok? I'm sick of everything that begins with "no way," "are you" or "imho", so pleeease talk about something non-personal or I'll rape you. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
"rape me my friend" |

chiastic slide always makes me think of the factory world in mario rpg, the music was very advanced for it's time, considering, check out the soundtrack on zophar.net |
