"I have aquired pretty much most of Helios Creed's catalog over the years but I either could not find or put off getting "Nugg" The Transport until very recently. I think this is one of Helios Creed's BEST efforts!!!. Not as raw, heavy and dark as "Cosmic Assault" and "Planet X" which preceded it, but a LOT better overall than Chromagnum Man, Activated Condition & Colors of Light which closely followed it. Although still very "spacey", the techno drum beats and industrial leanings have been toned down a bit, the songs have more traditional song structure and melody and tunes such as "Vacume Cleaner", "Scorpio Girl", "Sonic Boom" and "Hard" are some of the best pounding fuzz rockers Helios Creed has ever written. Check this one out if you haven't already, it may not be available for much longer.

"Until recently,I've never even seen this CD.Way-cool cover,no?Call it industrial,heavy space rock...even alternative industrial,if you like.One fact remains,the former Chrome guitarist knows his craft well.Dug about every one of the twelve cuts here,but I thought that tunes like "Vacuum Cleaner","Scorpio Girl","Space Monkey" and the in-your-face "Hard" had managed to capture the intensity of his early work,plus "Cross The Line" and perhaps "Sonic Boom" sort of resembled outer space theme music.A should-have."
