Fair enough. I know a lot of people rate both of them quite highly, and as I said I do like a few of the tracks. Neither of them held together as a continuous listen for me though. I kept them for a few years for the stand-out tracks and eventually stopped revisiting them. My girlfriend has '4-cornered room' around here somewhere I think. Maybe I'll give it another go. Y'all know about Mote Evolver? http://www.mote-evolver.com. It's his newish label/net label. Looks as though the new 7th Plain is out in November. The current release is some vile elctrogash, so my hopes are cautious. I can't see him resurrecting that moniker for nothing though...
