Not saying they're all of comparable quality, but they are all tapping into that same mood in the zeitgeist. The same one that produced a huge number of disaster/apocalypse films, even before Sept 11

I dig what you’re saying, if not all the albums you’re mentioning.
Also, Soft Bulletin in there maybe? Lots of humanity/technology themes in that one, and it’s cracking good too.
13 is really goddamn great. The band’s best, really.
