"Insides' first album was much-better-than-average 4ad fare, with tasteful electronics, pleasant female vocals, and some of the most dysfunctional lyrics I'd heard in a long time. I bought this expecting something similar. Wrong-o. This is a forty-minute single track of minimalist instrumantal music. It's very well done, reminding me of Terry Riley's "In C," or Reich's "Music for 18 Musicians," but lacking in the rythm department. It changes, but very slowly and gradually. Not much for close listening, but still very good background music."
