Directed towards everybody who likes faithless....
Go get their last album!!! it rocks. plain and simple... it rocks.
great sound, great lyrics, faithless at their finest hour:



My dad came into my room holding his hat
I knew he was leaving,
he sat on my bed told me some facts, son.
I have a duty, calling on me
You and your sister be brave my little soldier
And don't forget all I told ya
Your the mister of the house now remember this
And when you wake up in the morning give ya momma a kiss
Then I had to say goodbye

In the morning woke momma with a kiss on each eyelid,
Even though I'm only a kid
Certain things can't be hid
Momma grabbed me
Held me like I was made of gold
But left her in a story untold
I said, momma it will be alright
When daddy comes home, tonight

With a long range weapon or suicide bomber
Wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether you're soaraway Sun or BBC 1
Disinformation is a weapon of mass destruct
You could a Caucasian or a poor Asian
Racism is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether inflation or globalization
Fear is a weapon of mass destruction

:hot:

This sound like an apocalyptic worldview, i know there is always some true to anything.
Look at the world as it is today... look at all those people suffering, hating, being afraid of what is to come, giving their life for nothing because they had enough of it or were brainwashed into believing that. There are more than 1bil people that don't have enough to eat(not poverty level, plain and simple food).
Wonderful world, yes, tell me about it, and tell me how many believe that such a wonderful world is wonderful only for some.

disinformation, mass manipulation etc...

wicked mind that may press the button at any time(I saw multiple documentaries about who's to push the button in us if need be... they all look like brainwashed, very young people, women and men alike)

racism present everywhere, here, there and overall; nazi, white-power, asian power whatever. it is there in the open.

greed... how many? how many suffering because of them?

fear... most of the time it drives people nuts, extremely dangerous to handle it. but the result could be the man without fear which is a critical mass.
 
I didnt make the world this way, who did?
Its all a horrible game! i know very well how the world at large really is, i have lived in the poorest places in the world and i have lived in the richest and there not even worlds apart, the void is much greater, My family grew up very poor but happy, i cant say the same for some of my silver spooned friends, The worlds wealth is not evenly spread out but thats just greed, I dont want to attack a nation or anything, as people are very nationalistic and i dont agree with that, I run a sports club on my weekends and only for ethnic minorities as Glasgow has the greatest level of racism and asylum seekers. I know about all the new world order and all the drama the super powers play, i march, i vote, i do what i can, how can we make a change, anything direct is called criminal activity, look at Green Peace, great idology but no power to change anything at the grass roots. We have to face the fact that the world is formed by our egos, who we trust the champions, the agressive people, the new warriors, i have never met a champion that was humble at there peak, power corrupts, and an A class amp has very little to answer for in the end. We do. If Vernor Vinge is right the Quantum computer will bring a true Judgement day, i agree, This Rome will fall, am ready.
 
Eeekkk... you think??

Ive been a BIG Faithless fan since Reverence, but this latest album is pretty ordinary.
The "Mass Destruction" single is just plain horrible.

There is nothing on the new album that can compare to songs like "Reverence", "Salva Mea", "Take The Long Way Home", "Crazy English Summer", "We Come One", etc.

AFAIK Zoe Johnston has left the band which is a very bad thing (even though Dido is still singing for them).
 
for amps you have alternatives(and it's not the kind of alternative like horns for normal ls).
mainly what I don't like is that class a is taken as the best it can get without anyone focusing on research for a better alternative. even if they research, they research the class a anyway(diff design whatever).
but let's not hijack this thread too. it's funny how people react when they see my signature. maybe I should start a thread for comments on it, and link to it from within the signature.
 
For me this album was a bit of a let down, it just didnt do it for me, I loved all their previous work but this one was a bit meh.

Then again they would have to go a very long way to beat Killers Lullaby, playing that in the dark sends shivers down my spine. Awesome!

Maybe I need to give it another chance. Wouldnt be the 1st time I disregarded a CD only to find it a hidden classic some years later.
