Last I heard, Evil Mothers have broken up. Judging by the subpar quality of these obviously aborted tracks, the copyright dates of 1997 and 1998, the old catalog # and the inclusion of 6 remixes ... I'd say they broke up sometime during the recording sessions for this album. Most of the tracks here are little more than half-hearted percussion jams or electronic noodlings with some smattering of samples, drones, etc. There's only a couple of new tracks that have vocals. The bulk of these sound unfinished and unpolished to my ears ... rough sketches that had the potential to become decent songs. "Medicinal" and "Orgasm Grinder" are the best of the bunch ... the former an upbeat number with guitars, vocals, etc that actually sounds finished and the latter an interesting drone piece. Too bad there weren't more tracks like these two. The re-mixes of old tracks are tacked on to make this cd somewhat worth your while, but even they fail to accomplish that. While they're certainly better than most of the album tracks, I'd much rather here finished Evil Mothers originals than these. Why this was ever released is beyond me. Rest in peace Evil Mothers ...
