Godflesh만의 색채를 잘 이어나간 이들의 세번째 정규앨범으로 곡간의 완성도는 빼어난 건 부정할 수 없지만 갈수록 평반이 되는 듯한 느낌이 든다. 너무 단순하게 기계 찍어내듯 Beat에 의존하는 것 같고 이들이 할 수 있는 실험성은 분위기를 잡는 것 말고는 외에 없어졌다. 몽환적인 Ambient 느낌이 많이 나는 곡들이 후반에 배치 되었는데 10번 곡인 "Pure II"는 21분 16초에 달하는 대곡이라 마지막까지 감상할 때는 지겹기도 했다.

Some good songs and some mediocre songs, but just skip that last track. Overall, it doesn't have the magic that Streetcleaner did, but I still get a good vibe. Tracks 3, 6, & 9 in particular I want to keep replaying. Good early effort by Godflesh.
