They're a bit underrated IMHO. What do you think?

dunno, haven't heard anything by them except what they
produced for Björk.

Didn't they release a record made totally out of sounds from
surgical procedures or something? Is it any good? Listening
to people being cut and stiched does sound like a major turn
off...

np: Dykehouse - Again,again

A chance to cut is a chance to cure is an excellent album
IMO. The sounds used don't make the album gross/scary at
all... they didn't do that deliberately. Instead they made
an album with the playfulness of "lobster tracks" by cylob
perhaps. The beats aren't "squarepusherized", they're more
linear but with enough copy/paste errors to keep it
interesting and the sounds used make it sorta evil sounding,
like it could be thought of as really complex but that's
mostly due to the complex sounds used, not the organization
of them, though I quite like the fairly simple organization.
the sounds make the album really wicked because it's so
different from often boring electronically created sounds.

Yes, I have that one it's called A chance to cut is a chance
to cure. It's full of surgery noises and noises that are
generated with skin reactions, breaking bones, modified
piano, static electricity and sucking fluid away. Most
tracks on it sound happy though. It's great IMHO, my fave
samplemusic-CD...

Even if it was gross, you have to admit it would still be
quite interesting to hear at least once. Personally, I think
it's a good album.
