i bought this album back in 2000 after a a friend's recommendation, to be honest it took a few listens to get into, but was well worth persevering. in between a couple of the heavier songs are some great soothing tracks, particularly Preoccupation and Grape. and after 7 years it still holds up well. it's a shame they split before a 2nd album, as this album leaves them as an enigma. this will be the 2nd time i have bought this album as my first one is worn!!!
