this album? it's very good! i'm totally into it. i think my fav song is Ex. 22, not necessarily b/c it's the poppiest, just cuz it's nice and cohesive.

Mine is Let X=X. This always reminds me of the room I lived in in first year in College, I listened to this and Matmos every time I was going out. Seems a bit weird now.

I haven't done an A/B comparison but my instinct was that all these tracks were better on the huge "United State Live" box.

Mr. Heartbreak is mostly killer, a little filler.
