Sort a being... eh... blah..... SORTA ROCKING AMBIENT... maybe...
just really really ho-hum..... IMO. The least essential HW since...
er, White Zone... no wait, Undisclosed Files... snzzzzzzz... zzzzz...
zzz..zzzzzzzz... huh!?? What's that? I fell asleep for 2 hours!
Oh my, someone must have slipped LiS into the CD player!!!!

If you have Alien, it depends what you think..... I thought A4 was pretty
er, twee(?), and LiS is a live album with mostly the same songs, really just
a boooooooooring retread IMO... I mean, most of the stuff live is just the
same
old preprogrammed sounds, canned playing all the way, or at least so routine
its just devoid of anything NEW. Maybe a little fuzzier. Nice *looking*
package
though. IF THEY'D SLASHED IT DOWN TO 1 DISC IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TWICE AS GOOD!


Hoping "twee" means what I hope it means!
