do you know a scarier track than this one?
with the undecipherable voices, all the sounds like coming
from the underworld, all these unknown, creepy sounds... i
can't help thinking of something like, assisting to a
mysterious and evil ritual (involving human sacrifices
probably) in a very dark room, in a catacomb or a crypt or
hell or such a place, underground, pitch-dark... sorry for
the cliché but this track is really one of those that make
me think aphex is a musical genius (and i usually wouldn't
say that of him). when listened in a pitch-black room,
alone, SAWII is one of the best albums ever.

useless post, i know, but i wanted to say this.
there are only, maybe two or three tracks, among all i know
which i consider as scary.
no one comes close to this one.

...I don't know, it's "songs" like this one and 'white blur'
that lead me to believe much of this collection is very
tongue-in-cheek. either that or this was ricky james'
ambient mastur[batory]work, breaking new ground for artistic
self-indulgence

I think one of the scariest things he's done was that video
w/ chris cunningham for that 'afx v7' track from Drukqs
