Sounds very cool; one of these days I'll have to check this band out
(thanks for keeping us informed, Scott)!

Is it just me, or does anyone else notice a strong similarity (both
lyrically and musically, although not rhythmically) between the verses (but
not the choruses) of "Psychotic Reaction" and "Brainbox Pollution"?  Anyone
know if Brock was listening to obscure 60s American garage bands in the
early 1970s?

Or Inner City Unit doing "Hurricane Fighter Plane" and "Little Black Egg"?

...lots of great DentalWork music on the first couple F/i albums (when they
were more of a space-industrial band than space-rock) ... check out the
'Out of Time/Out of Space' CD...
