FLA has been at this for so long, and really put out so much material how can they not be hit or miss at times? while the whole album has incredible production, (try it on good headphones...wow!) I do wonder if the songs here have the staying power of some of their older work. Still, there are some absolutely excellent moments here such as 'next war', 'contagion', and haujobb's remix of blood is also a highlight for me. IMHO, too many times the songs take too long to get going here, although they are rewarding once they do. itunes previews are too short to do the songs here justice. Even though it's not their best work, I do believe the electronics, synths, and drum sounds have never been better and it's certainly ahead of it's time for ANY electronic artist. FLA breaks new ground...again! Worth every penny, and nearly a 5 star album.
