I think they are good songs, just not all essential to enjoy the album, if they were longer they'd be a bit less disposable. However IMO, Milkman is the best song on there.

Well written review. I can argue on some of the ratings, but overall, great.

Milkman is an absolute corker. Hilarious song.

Good review, but it's actually Carn Marth, not Corn Mouth.

No, it's Corn Mouth. Where did you read that it is 'Carn Marth'?

It's more likely to be Carn Marth for the following reasons:

1. Because a lot of this album is related to Cornwall. Carn Marth is a hill in Cornwall that is a tourist attraction. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carn_Marth

2. On all the Aphex Twin records that I own (This, I Care Because You Do and Drukqs) the tracks are written in Richard's very messy handwriting and looks like it says Corn Mouth



Half of the sources on the Internet will tell you that it is Corn Mouth (hell, even the All Music Guide does) but I think that it is 99% Carn Marth. Look closely at how it is written on the back of the album if you disbelieve me. Also check out the discussion page on wikipedia, it talks about the track title disputes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Richard_D._James_%28album%29#Song_titles Unless you downloaded this album, in which case, fuck off.This Message Edited On 10.30.07

"4" is incredible. I love the style of this album compared to some of his other works.

Fun Fact: That's Richard talking on To Cure a Weakling Child, he just pitch shifted his voice.



Also most Aphex Fans would try to hack your computer, as giving Carn Marth a 3/5 is an insult to them (and myself as well).



Probably one of the best TBT's I've read so far. Good work!

I think 4 represents the touching, beautiful side of Aphex's music.

Yeah, apart from a few key parts I found this pretty boring.
