Well after a couple of listens, I must say Im loving this. Even Fema Camp,
which I didnt get into live, is kicking it. Corporate Elect is the standout
track for me, but also Pole Shift, Primobile, Glitch, In Cythera, Trance,
fuck it there isnt a dud track on the album. Production is pretty good too,
although I havent had chance yet to hear it on big speakers. Beats the shit
out of the last 2 albums by a country mile. Best thing theyve done in years.

Did you download the media share file that Paul sent.?

You need winrar as the programme to open the file. It's similar to win zip.
Then the music files would be there.
You "unzip" the media share file to a specified destination.
