4th studio album by Mogwai released a litttle more than two years after Rock Action follows closely on the musical pattern laid out on the predeccesor with an incorporation of electronic music that never takes dominance over the band's electric guitar sound. The album consists of 9 compositions with a playing time just over 41 minutes, (again) making it one of the band's shortest albums.
