Another great purchase! A lot of acid sounds here too, it seems the cousin of YosepH by Luke Vibert. Track2 is an incredible powerful track, Freak is another great track, definitely a good purchase for everybody. \/\/. |
||||||||
|

|
|
the first track has been memorable on the few listens i have given it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Blown is the BEST track on the CD! i like some others like Premacy and Freak as well...... there are some tracks that i don't like as well.... |

A beautfiul return to form for LFO (after the hit n miss Advance)... Frequencies was on of the first "techno" records I bought - Life changing stuuf as you realise the sheer purity & simplicity about the while album... LFO records smell like the future ! (or maybe it's just nostalga for a future that didn't happen (The brazilans have word for these sort of concepts. Theres a theory that Language shapes thought, so doublt odd we don't have word for his kinda of stuff....)... I'll see what links I can dig out (to bore you stupid).... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
A couple of tracks I don't dig, and everytime I hear that ''computer voice'', I feel annoyed, but generally, I love this album. Refreshingly straightforward, still sounds hip though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
By chance, we had Radio 1 in the car the otherday, and they played ACID TRAX, the original...)... But even better, I was mouthing along to LFO We are Back and sure enough that was the very same record he/she mised in.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah....it doesn't overboard with endless timestreaching or over production...classic sheffield Bass monsters.... (ACID, of whetver you wanna call it, just sound better when not processed so much....Too much DSP nowdays...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I lost the CD a day after I got it and i only found it again today. Brilliant album...it has everything...it is happy, sad, sleepy, emotional...complete range of feelings throughout the album. If anything I think it has been underrated and overlooked by many people because it doesn't rely on beat fuckery to maintain interest...it relies on the music instead, which these days people seem unwilling to listen to. |

OH MY GOD after listening to samples of sheath, i'm am so fucking buying that and dancing in the way i do to music that awesoem. |

"blown" is easily one of my favorite songs of the year. this album is great because even though not every track is a knockout it has enough musical variety to make it a solid, perhaps even classic album. when 'spokes' came out i liked it just a little more than 'sheath' but 'sheath' has had more staying power and has stronger melodies and more interesting and varied beats, so it edges out plaid. oh yeah and this album has so many bangers like "mum-man" and "freak," sometimes they actually sound better out of the context of the album though. i think the most cohesive part of the album is the middle few tracks (minus "freak"), which is kind of relaxing? i know that's a bit taboo for a "techno" album but that's how i felt when i listened to it twice earlier today. it doesn't need to disrupt your senses like autechre or squarepusher, though some LFO tracks can go in that direction (which isn't bad at all). there aren't enough people talking about this album. i get the feeling this will be one people will "discover" several months or even years later. btw *allegedly* there will be at least one other LFO EP release in the near future. with the long wait between albums and the fact that not LFO, but mark bell's friend selected the tracks for this album (for his car, according to the press sheet), there must be tons of equally good if not superior material that warp (or another label under a different moniker like last time?) could put out. fingers crossed for something similar to but longer than "millionaire dogs." |

am i the only person that thinks advance is one of the best albums ever? clearly so.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hard to get into for me still. i guess i'm just stuck on frequencies. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Advance is a great album. I don't get how folks think it's a bit dodgy. Maybe in the face of Frequencies, but they're two completely different animals so you can't really compare. There's some dead good tracks in there. *puts on Them* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
After Frequencies Advance was never going to get a good reception...if it had sounded like Frequencies everyone would have went "more of the same with no progression"...as it turned out it was "sounds too different to Frequencies so therefore can't be as good an album" |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Poor blighter was never going to win either way :'( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well i dont exactly mean i want the SAME, as FRQ. just that its SOOO different. hard to sink my ears into. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i got the promo today... with those (extra)tunes - "butterslut" and "whistle while you jerk", and that "freak" is a bit different as well i think (i havent heard the album version in a real long time but from what i remember is a bit different) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Advance is probably my FAVOURITE LFO album....followed by SHEATH.....i hope i can get ADVANCE someday....as it's out of print in the U.S. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, Advance is their superior record! It's close to perfect!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Love 'Sheath' it's been in my Personal CD player for a very long time now. Over 2 weeks (which is alot for me as i usually change CD's daily) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was down at ye olde CD Esoterik today and they had copies of Frequencies and Advance. I tried to listen to Advance (never heard it before) but the clerks were blasting this sensitive indie studentcore so I couldn't really get a feel for it... I picked up Frequencies - only $20 Canadian which is pretty reasonable for a UK import. Incidentally they had stocked up on another shitload of Sheath so it must be selling well - lots of stuff at this shop only gets ordered in onesies and twosies. |

hey didnt know lfo at all... in the last months I got some mp3 but my computer sounds like shit so I didnt get the picture at all great albums I got (frequencies and sheath), right now listening to sheath and its incredible... very fresh and energetic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that is to be expected from an plaid fan :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Spokes shits all over this boring simple release imo. And I liked YosepH quite a bit. This is just boring bar 1 or 2 tracks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what does lfo have to do with plaid? I think its totally diferent and love both |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
plaid are 70s mouldy brown wallpaper compared with LFOs acid induced maximum contrast colour blinding lovliness |
||||||||

you're cylob |

sheath is the only LFO record I own,.. I have hteir other albums mp3'd, but have yet to stumble across them in my rekkid store runs, I thought advance was the best at first, then sheath grew on me,.. the "freak" single contains awesome b sides by the way, b1 is fucking brilliant, b2 is a bit lacking though,........... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just found SHEATH for $12, used and i love it! a great record! |
||||||||

I hate "freak" with a passion. |
