Reviews: A box set of two 12" discs and literature documenting--via an Orwellian philosophy--the human struggle. Inordinately powerful, overwhelming, and mind-boggling in its successes, this package must be heard. I only need leave you with this quote from the record: "People submerged by the commonplace, programmed by a technology whose language of command, analysis, and control strangles the mind with a cold logic." Indeed... -Tesco Vee (from Maximum Rocknroll #17, September 1984)
