Sounds cool. Arguments about religion get me down, because rationality
goes right out the window.
But this does, hence the removal of the "OFF". :-)

CoH is definitely one of my favorites. I think the term "synthetic" is
unfair, since it implies a lack of feeling in the music. But practically
all of the songs, IMHO, pack a unique emotional punch. It does have
synthesizers and samples, etc, but that, of course, does not mean it
isn't good stuff.
Space Bandits might be more accessible though.
