the deal-broker for me was 'live at a dinner party'...

it's probably not that bad really, just that it sounds just a tad ludicrous at first, not unlike many of my own favourites! :-)

oh i'm certain it's ludicrous; i haven't listened to that last track yet because i am frightened of it

Can't be THAT terrifying! Ninety minutes of "Pass the salt" in Finnish with a bit of ambient dibbly-doob in the background isn't gonna give the kids nightmares, is it?

...IS IT???

I'm 18 minutes in right now and I have heard neither the clink of silverware nor the supping of soup.

okay, finished this. it was only 1 1/2 hours but it seemed like longer...and yet shorter too.
