I hate Orbital and Crystal Method, I really do. In articles they say Orbital is the "new" Pink Floyd. In articles for Air, they say "does the world really need another Pink Floyd, Air seem too think so............" |

Orbital and Crystal Method make real good music, some sounds of this groups is damn great! But once Keith Flint said that Orbital sound was great only when u used drugs. Try this. |

This too is my shit personal oppinion: Well, Orbital is the kind of music that people that wear orange glasses dance to. They helped Kirk Hamlett in providing that shit song "Satan" for the Spawn soundtrack. They sound to cut and clean, each sound is sharp in away, I sort of consider that a bad thing, and for some reason, they remind me of K-Mart and cheap wine casks. Crystal Method, I don't hate as much, but everyone on here seems to like them and Orbital; I've heard shit like Little Fluffy Clouds and that and I hate it. To me, Orbital is like the pop music of this. The same way bands like Linkin Park, Staind, Papa Roach et al are of rock. Sash! and Chicane go with Orbital. |

Although, Linkin Park fans don't actually know what thy're listening to. "Fuck off, this aint pop music this is the reall shit, listen to the passion, can you hear the passion? i don't think you're listening hard enough. Have a listen to this Papa Roach cd too, listen to the man talk about kids killing themselves and shit, you know, this shits for real. This music helps a thug life survivor, like myself, get up in the morning, you know?" |

You can't really diss Orbital, they helped build the whole electronic scene.. they were one of the first 'dance' acts (along with LFO) to make this music work in an album format. Besides which, they wrote Chime, Belfast, Halcyon, Lush, The Box, Are We Here etc etc. Which is a lot more quality tunage than most artists put out over their careers. Give em their due, they were true pioneers. The Crystal Method, however, are fuckin trash. |

Reflex - alright, it's just my opinion. But it's pretty unarguable, even if you don't like Orbital, you have to give em respect. |

Reflex Everyones posts are their "opinions," no one can speak for everyone. It's right to assume that what people post is their "opinions." There is no need for the statement "THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION" to be stuck to each post. Perhaps if you spent your time thinking rather then complaining, you'd know this. |

I love Orbital. I've always liked Orbital more than anything. Everyones gotta have one of those songs which make you shudder, a really strange feeling. Lush 3-1 and Box 1/2 do it to me. Aphex is cool and I like listening carfully to it, but I cant close me eyes and fall into it like I do with Orbital; totally forgeting everything thats going on, even if I didnt want to forget anything. Makes me feel so good. Hows about anyone else? Which songs make you physically shudder? R3FL3X? |

I personally think Orbital are fantastic, but they've had their best years by now. The Alltogether and Middle of Nowhere are nice albums, but are more or less a bit old had compared to their previous classics, like In Sides, Snivilisation and the Green and Brown albums. But you gotta give 'm some credit indeed, they have been extremely important in setting up the current wave of electronic bands in the nineties. |

Orbital's Halcyon makes me shudder, makes my eyes glaze over, gives me a lump in my throat... Papua New Guinea by FSOL as well. And LFO by LFO. UK techno/hardcore circa 91-95 generally, even the harsh stuff, gives me daft grins... |

Orbital are fantastic! I went to see them live a couple of months ago & have to say they were AMAZING!! I do however agree that the Altogether is probably the weakest album in their portfolio. It's got some fantastic songs on it (Funny Break being an absolute stunner) but the rest are a tad uninspiring. Hope the nest album makes up for it! |

The Brown album for dancing round your house, In-Sides for lying on the sofa. |

I think insides is the best and I think MON comes a close second because of the songs: Way Out, Know where to run and Nothing left. Halycon is damn good |

yeah it's on Hackers OST. Never seen it? Not a bad film at all, I think it must be more or less the first movie with Angelina Jolie.. Underworld are also on the soundtrack. |

Halcyon+On+On was the album version of the 12" single. God I am so dull... |

...actually, I can be duller. Halcyon is the name of a downer medication that the Hartnoll's mum was addicted to, and the song is meant to be a statement against the brainwashing and tranquilizing of the populace, mainly thru TV and that. Hence the 'cabbages' on the cover of the single, and the title 'Radiccio EP' (I probably spelt that wrong, which means cabbage in French, or maybe Italian. I don't know. And the female voice in the track is a sample taken from Opus 3's Fine Day, which was reversed. I could probably get duller, but I will stop there. |

I dunno, but I own In Sides by Orbital, and a couple Aphex Twin albums, and I Care Because You Do is much better then In Sides... The songs on In Sides have a lot of sounds which sound very distinct by themselves, which isn't a bad thing if you like that, but the songs on I Care Because You Do sounds more fluid, and is better in my opinion... In Sides is an alright album though... |

Orbital have some really cool tracks, some however, are just mediocre techno. The Orb is far better. Vegas by the Crystal Method is excellent, but the follow up, Tweekend, is absolutely revolting. It's rare you see such a regression. Every track sounds like it has the exact same sounds and fx used. Especially since it took what, 5 years for this thing to come out? |
