There's too much ambient music. Things would improve if ambient musicians had to produce a symphonic power metal LP, a Carnatic grindcore ballet or a jazz fusion opera in F# Phrygian once every 5 years, just to show they can (cf The Straight Story) before being allowed to fire up the reverb again.

The pressing plant we use is based Germany. We use them because they're the best. The album is a split release between Wrong Speed and Learning Curve (Minneapolis). The records shipped last Friday. Gets to America in three days. But for us? Tied up in knots at Customs, no sign of them clearing. 1/2

I like the term gimp when used as Edwin does - the stupid, weakening thoughts that tie you up and prevent you progressing through life.
