This album really is like a modern classical piece of music isn't it? The Waxen Pith, Icct Hedral, Next Heap With, and then the synth led tracks still have a real classical feel to them...

Acrid avid jam shred is my fav song. i love the melody so much sorta half way through when that high pitched string comes in and the whole melody flows. I learned it on my keyboard. weeee. Im proud of myself :)

It's a very good album...it's very comforting to listen to, like the RDJ album. A perfect mix of cool drums, strings, and patented aphex weirdness...
It's timeless.

I think it's one of his best. Also fond memories for me since it was the very first Aphex Twin CD I ever got.

And also I get a feeling of childhood memories from the album, mostly Mookid. Journey's to the country for me atleast is really summed up in Mookid. And Alberto Balsalm's metalic drumming makes me think of rural places, where we visited while in the country, very happy memories. The album is very special to me.

I think that all of the albums have their highlights...I've been asked several times to pick a favourite but it's impossible! I think that the best track on this one is ventolin.

I Care Because You Do rocks! The only track I ever skip is "Come on, you slags!" I'd still say as a whole the album is fantastic! Richard did a really marvelous job on that one!

ICBYD has been my favorite album since the first time I heard it. It really does seen like classical music for the 21st century, I love Acrid Avid Jamshred, Start as you mean to go on, Alberto Balsalm, Wax the Nip, Mookid... fuck I like em all!
P.S. I don't like Ventolin.

Yeah, I love his use of strings on that album. Wax the Nip always knocks me out, and Next Heap With is fucking underrated.
Every track is pretty decent, even Ventolin. I don't really skip over anything... some of the tracks could be a little shorter, though.
