Where did that drill come from?

"The remastering job on this is truly amazing. The band have somehow managed to make the sound stronger and still find parts of music you wouldn't find elsewhere in the original remastering job. Alfa Matrix, their label for this venture, has said that the original remastering job was " 2D " and this new version you could hear in " 3D." While I wouldn't go so far as that, they do have a point in saying that. The extra track," He Runs Too Fast For Us " is a frenetic tune that deservedly ends this album ( well until the 3 secret tracks which were on the original remastering job )



The second CD is just as good as it shows all the elements of Front 242's music and how it all came together. Occasionally the odd instrumental of a track on the first CD is annoying and the last 2 tracks are wholly unnecessary ( apart from the rounds of applause the tracks are just the same ) but other than that it provides essential listening. You may find the price a little steep ( $46 is a lot to part with ) but you shouldn't be disappointed with it."
