I think so
I am listening to it right now... and so many tracks sound to me like all time classics... like if I was listning to polynomial-c or On... drukqs is in my opinion a classic already
and listening to snares and many others, I see that drukqs was not groundbreaking maybe, but still is the best of the best in its genre

I really like it alot. It really has so much and is varied in subtle ways. Avril 14th is still such a great track, mighty fine work from Mr. James!!

I don't know, see I don't check Billboard because I don't value their opinion, so regardless of whether it was included or not my view towards them wouldn't change.

subliminal message for all to buy the cd(s) & bye, as in bye bye
buy a record player, dude as much as you love music, i dont know how you can live w/out one
you dont have to buy every release on vinyl, like roygbivcore, but there are some essential eps and 12" that you NEED

Don't think it is yet but I'm damn sure it will be. In some circles anyway. I would describe the record as unique. To me it is remarkable. It houses music that you wouldn't know could (co-)exist and is remarkable that such contrasting tracks have similar power. I think Vordhosbn would be in my top 10 fav tracks ever.

FOR FUCKS SAKE! I LOVE THIS ALBUM!!! Why the hell can't people give into what is good and love this album. Fucking rock fans should realise that their music is shit and give into the awsomeness that is drukqs. I think that it is definetely a classic already, especially as aphex has fucked off!

It's a good album...just not a classic when compared to other stuff he has released. It was retreading old ground, in a good but not mindblowing way. In my opinion, there are a lot of other same era releases that are better albums than Drukqs.

I listened to that track too many times and it kind of ruined the effect for me. I did, however, forget afxv237 or whatever it's called.

well if you think those two are better than Drukqs how you are using the word 'classic' far too often. Maybe it is just my interpretation of what a classic is which is stopping me from labelling Drukqs as one.
(on a side note I though Go Plastic was average at best)

Go Plastic cries outside in the rain looking in through the window at Drukqs in the warmth of his own home, laughing with all his friends (who all think he's swell).

It's a minor classic. Didn't do anything of particular note, didn't innovate, but what's there is impeccable (usually). I'll be listening to this album for a long time.

didn't innovate? The whole texture of this album is quite unique. Putting a disjointed, stark and simplistic prepared piano piece next to drillish complex programming is fresh.

Maybe fresh, but too obvious. That was one of my least favorite aspects of the album, though I guess that's subjective. I do like most of the individual tracks, but the album is always a bit of an ordeal for me, personally. Information overload.
