Yeah I like it!

But something is missing.
It's like it's missing a soul or something. Yeah it's genius, yeah it's cool music. But I miss emotion. Just to technical, and to hick-up-a-rish. If you know what I mean.
And another thing, all tracks somehow sound like each other.

Hmm, not convinced yet.
But yes, I like it. It's cool.

I'm totally with you. There are some very, very good tracks on it though.

this album is a fucking masterpiece.
listening to this reminds me of when i first heard music has the right to children. the flow whole of the album. so epic in scope. i do not understand how anyone could say that this is generic. i do not get it. this is something brilliant. i've never heard anything like it before. i feel like ive been waiting to hear this album for so long and i never even knew it.

i ordered the vinyl from skam so i'll be getting my mispress pretty soon... they refunded me all the money so i'll definitely be buying it again.

by the way, dunno if it was answered, but mystery artist is funckarma. it says it in the braille.

Love VHS Head but I'm sad to say that after listening to it for a couple weeks straight it's making me nauseous. It's weird, I want to listen to it, I love it's sound... I've never had music effect me like this.

Maybe I'll wait a week and see how I feel then.

Well you'll wanna check ya source cuz I just got it in the mail today

Yeah, it came early last week for me (or maybe the week before).. and I'm in Texas. Had a long way to travel.

Thanks for the info on the braille.. I had a bit of it translated and now I'll need to see if "funckarma" or whatever fits.. It definitely doesn't say SKAM. Part did say, "VHED"in one translation.

Too confusing.
