This album is worth buying not just for the extraordinary haunting blend of funk with the best of ambient despair emerging from the UK synthesiser movement of the late 1970's and 80's, but also simply so that you can say you have listened to world war three. The final track on this album, Winter Hill, sums up virtually all fears and all horrors of the Cold War,a frightening and sinister military percussion that builds and explodes across the better part of twelve minutes. The use of incredibly powerful bass rhythms detonate every few minutes as the nuclear weapons of the world tear apart the aural fabric. It is an incredibly powerful piece of music that will one day find a home in a very powerful movie.
