As one can see from the above this CD contains both the Mono and the Stereo versions of this album's release. The differences are quite interesting in many ways.

A great set! I got one last year, back when we could go to record stores (and they were open.) Hope we get back there soon!

Until then:

With everyone safe and sound, Amen to that.

I have been listening to "CONTRA" after Vampire Weekend endosed Bernie. Comforting and fun music at the same time. Helps me in the Corona virus things and getting over the disappointment of Bernie not becoming the nominee.

Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.

Celtic Frost my favorite metal & rolls band also prior band of this band Hellhammer killer e.p, material, But I'm not a metal head more of a rocker leaning toward classical, old-rock.

Beside them  I don't listen to much metal except old school garage-y brutal rendition of 80'' primal riffs periods, Sarcofago ''Inri'' is very good too, stuff likke this folks beside this not muuch , perhhaps false metal of Melvins Lysol album.

Thoroughly enjoying this new release:

Winding through some Phil Collins Genesis this morning, starting with A Trick of the Tail...

The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils.
The motions of his spirit are dull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus.
Let no such man be trusted.

-- William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

Not bad, they were still doing quite complex music.

Me too  :(

When I die let my ashes float down the Green River
Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam
I'll be halfway to Heaven with Paradise waitin'

Back to Yugoslavia, 1986:

That's a surprise, someone else liking Laibach :o. The use of samples added some variety and interest to the industrial sound back then.

I 'discovered' them immediately, that's to say: in 1986, with this Nova Akropola album. Found it hard to find out what 'message' it contained, though I was aware they were Slovenes. Later it became obvious they made clever use of all the Totalitarian monstrosities of the past decades to provoke the still Communist Yugoslavian state and express a stubborn sense of freedom and independence. Can you agree?  ;D
