By the way, does anyone else think that Drukqs got an exceptionally bad rap? I just read the review Pitchfork wrote back in 2001, and I was shocked. It's probably my favorite Aphex Twin album, as long as SAW vol.2 isn't counted as a proper album.
It's fuckin Drukqs, man! A classic to me and my brethren. I didn't stop listening to that beast for weeks after it dropped.
[EDIT:] corrected misspelling of album that I am so publicly gushing over. Truth is, I've been making that mistake for years. Blame the damage I did to my own precious memory while listening to, you guessed it, DRUKQS, in the time immediately surrounding its release.
