i never listened to the music of aphex twin in the nineties because these album covers repulsed me. add to that the imagery of copying and pasting this face onto a bikini clad buxom woman's body, juxtaposing this bearded toothy rictus with scantily clad fake looking women's breasts, as this artist did in his promotional material... and... that was enough to turn me off the the work of this musical genius. i am ashamed to admit this. however, in my defense, at that time, i was still masturbating to victoria's secret catalogs that i'd stolen from friends' moms. my mom didn't get those leingerie catalogues in the mail, thank heavens, because that would have been very confusing and upsetting for my young highly impressionable mind. dope jams on this record. definitely stands the test of time. it's so nice to get aquainted with the work of a massively famous artist and to feel that all the hype is deserved for a change.
