actually, i don't know the track number because it isn't on
my copy of SAW2 (i live in america, we get gyped).

its the one thats 10 minutes long and repeats three notes.
beautiful simplicity.

Great, great track.

I love the other omitted track as well, 'Hankie'. Very dark
and sinister.

Source Direct sampled the opening synth line and used it in
one of their tracks.

It was interesting to hear some dark d & b over top of that.

Yeah hankie is awesome as well. it would have been nice if
that version of SAW was released in the US.

I just assumed it wouldn't fit on 2 80 minute CDs.

My favourite on the album apart from Rhubarb and Lichen. But
saying that all the tracks are fucking class!

There were two.

Stone in Focus & Hankie.

They say Stone was omittedmot likely because of the length.
Don't know about Hankie though.

Lichen is superb. Hexagon is another track that not enough
people seem to appreciate.

Hexagon was one of those tracks that, when I first heard it,
I knew I was going to like it.

I just like the way it builds on that simple melody.

I've just started listening to SAW2 after around six months
not hearing a single song from it. Its better than its ever
been. A classic album indeed.

I'll be listening to SAW 2 in a few minutes. Had to dl the
whole things cause my CD's got damaged! Gotta make all the
tracks are in good shape...

Off topic, but did anyone else think the strings in the
background of D-Scape sound like something out of Resident
Evil?

I thought that the US release got gyped of 3 tracks. Or is
it 2? I'm not sure myself.

*turns on Stone In Focus and runs to Discography*

Yeah, Stone in focus is one of my favourites too.
Pity it isn't on my copy of SAW II

Hankie, the other left off track, is one of his most
disturbing pieces.

I have SAWII as well, but alas, I'm an American and got
ripped off of the 'missing' tracks. Trying to find Hankie
now, how long should it be?
