||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That'll teach you to pre order from Warp. Classic release though :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
boring release though. :| Theres only a few tracks on there that i want to listen to, the rest are demoted to being 'background music' forever and ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what can not be said about this release? its one of the most cohesive, beautiful works ever. the whole album is a triumph and the shining star of afx's career. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ist one of the bests i think..... let me think....... I LOVE IT ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Me like. Rhubarb, Blue Calx, Lichen, ahhh :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think its a really nice album to listen to in a crowded busy place, like a station or somewhere like that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Rhubarb is one of his best tracks. And yeah, I listened to it on the bus once and it was a weird experiece. Everything moved in slow motion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think this is my favourite album ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this and fitter happier by radiohead are the two most surreal things to listen to in a crowded train station or something of the like |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
surreal? its boring and ordinary. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You don't know what you're talking about, Bob. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah.. if you dont like this you shouldnt be listening to ambient |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I really like the darker tracks like "tassels"... well I like all of it really |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you got the brown vinyl through the post? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This is all good yes beeyufitul. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pss-shaw! As if! Boring and ordinary like an alien planet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, for a mere £20 via ebay i figure a good deal, even if one of the labels is glued over a track..is this the case on any other copies..? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
stone in focus is only on the vinyl version, right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My favorite cd of all time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, thanks phobia |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I would deskribe it 'mushroom like soundz' - damn good, especially when using portable stuff somewhere in woods after dawn. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this album consistently tends to blow me away every time I listen to it. i love it. my fav. album ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just listened to stone in focus for the first time jaw dropping beauty |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:) |

What "Stone In Focus" lacks in action, it makes up for in sheer aural texture... ^.^ |
||||||||
|

|||||||||

|
Best Aphex release without a doubt. This is the definitive Aphex release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So who originally came up with the names for the tracks that are now widely accepted? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
was it the bloke who did the FAQ, i forget his name and the immensity of my nob prevents me from google-ing, Lazlo something. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't get the 'blur' ones. The images corresponding to those tracks don't look blurry or anything. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh, nevermind, looks like the insert is a bit different than the center labels. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Absolutely feckin amazing album that I'd be proud to have played at my funeral, if I wasn't an undead mortal. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont think i can be any more jealous than i am now. saw2 is one of the most inspiring albums i know - despite the amount of 'filler' tracks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's nice. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Matchsticks, Rhubarb, Lichen, Stone in Focus, Blue Calx are all excellent tracks. I haven't heard many songs that have the same feeling to them but Dirqual's song, Laura Joseph 2, is a brilliant song with a SAWII feel to it. I love that song. |
||||||||

gave it a full listen yesterday aphex twin is god |
||||||||
|

This album really stops time when you listen to it. Everything slows down and you can see through things. |
||||||||
|

|
lazlo nibble. he also did a v. good ZTT discog. and a few others aswell. was it him that did the faq? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
incredible album! but, imo, not afx's best or, at least, not my favourite... i love the total madness tracks where a shrill (?) and caustic (?) sound is repiting like for ten minutes... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pure sickbient! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Z-Twig iz my favourite from this album... |
