What are you talking about? It's fucking unassailable this song. Fucking bullet proof.

sample is like sthing off the propellerheads

It's not a sample. And no it isn't.

LFO are phenomenal. It's a shame they never made more records.

yeah it's a lot better than what gez varley was doing though

i mean he had five or six awesome tracks around the time (quo vadis in particular stands out) but otherwise it was an endless torrent of minimal *yawn*
"sheath" is like "advance" - a blast of pure wtf that one half of your brain tells you is techno but that the other half realizes it kinda sounds like nothing else out there
― the late great, Sunday, 29 April 2012 01:05 (1 year ago) Permalink
the b-side (and bonus track on some editions of Sheath) is one of my all-time favourites

Worst big 'classic' act on Warp. Other than 'LFO' there's very little they've done that doesn't sound like a lumpen, lazy mess.

Like, you know that episode of south park where everyone's digging the new Adam Sandler movie but all he can hear is fart sounds? That's what I get from LFO.

That's because you are a cloth-eared fool.
A few years ago Bjork did a live version of Hyperballad that mutated into the spasmodic breakdown from Freak, largely because Mark Bell was on knob-twiddling duties. I pretty much lost my shit the first time I heard it (partly because much of the gig that had preceded it was pretty muted and dull).

Yeah, I've got to say Charlie that's an insane thing to say. I fail to see how anyone couldn't love Frequencies. Got the reissue on vinyl. Still sounds mint now.

dog latin is a great poster, though it sometimes seems his opinion of 'idm' albums is the exact inverse of my own

I love all 3 LFO albums. Sorry DL, but you're wrong here.
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Sunday, 29 April 2012 17:07 (1 year ago) Permalink
I remember queuing up in our price at 9am to get Advance. There was like 5 people doing the same. Exciting days.

No, you're all wrong. Every one of you.
That said, I'm giving these albums another go this evening.

Impossible to hate Frequencies. Flat out impossible.

i assume he's still raving in a dark warehouse somewhere, just him, a boombox and a bunch of tapes of old LFO gigs

Rewind seven years ago to 2003; this track never gets old.
LFO is a UK techno/electronic band that’s been cutting tracks since the late 80s and are currently on Warp Records. For those who don’t know, their name comes from “Low Frequency Oscillator,” which is integral in producing the dubstep wobble sound.
