You can tell some of the songs were written in an earlier era, but the best songs on the album (The Old Style Raiders/Between The Rocks/Old Republican) rank up there with Sheila and Zombie in the pantheon of his best. 50,000 Unmarked Bullet..."  [+]  Reply

"A lovely 2-Part drone piece – I can only ever devote my attention to a few new pieces like this as it's easier to just return to past favourites, and I'm glad I tried this one out. Part 1 is like Colin Stetson's "and they still move" but slower, more dragged out. Part I is haunting, it takes moti..."  [+]  Reply

"I used to own this on tape until some little shite burgled my car in a Yorkshire hotel car park many many years ago!

"Violent By Design is to me, one of the greatest Hip-Hop releases of the 90's. It marks an interesting time for the group as it shows the transition period from abstract, obscure and almost unearthly lyrical content to grimy, hardcore death rap. Vinnie's voice gets a little more graveled and rough..."  [+]  Reply

"Originally a German import from Rough Trade minus the Destroy the Heart ep, this is still an awe inspiring collection showcasing just how brilliant Chadwick & co. were in the early days."  Reply

"I think the great thing about this album is the way they captured a specific global sentiment of what Hispanic/Latino culture had in common. It is in a way a concept album."  Reply
