As for a specific song that isn't on one of their albums, but actually on Wipeout XL, d/l 'Landmass.'
A sweet ass tune.

i guess it's no more dated than Lifeforms as they are leftovers from that album.
how does it compare with lifeforms?

Tales Of Ephidrina isn't Lifeforms leftovers, considering it was released a year before...
It was released to give Virgin an idea of what to expect from FSOL in the future.
Soundwise, it's a suitable cross between Accelerator and Lifeforms. Whilst it contains decent track merges (unlike the random bursts of sound on Accelerator), and some of their most sublime ambient moments (notably 'Mountain Goat'), many of the tracks are more...techno based. 'Liquid Insects', 'Ephidrina' and 'Auto Pimp' all have hard kicking techno beats. Ish. A lot more like Accelerator.
It's a fantastic album, and its main downfall is its length, clocking in at forty-something minutes.

I absolutely hated Accelerator, almost gave up on fsol after that. This sounds good though, a slightly more techno version of lifeforms doesn't sound bad at all.
whats wrong with 40 something minutes anyway? thats sounds fine for an album.

40 minutes can be good. But I feel it needs something more. At only 8 tracks, it feels almost like an EP rather than an album.
I'm just picky. You'll like it a lot more than Accelerator.

not necessarily leftovers, but more tracks that didnt fit in with the overall lifeforms project...its sorta like the one-off tracks they made during the lifeforms sessions, but they didnt exactly fit..
