THANKS TO EVERYBODY!
Thanks for all your support, comments, complaints, and gifts. Thanks to all the readers and all the people linking to any of the sites. Thanks for making us an "Excellent music index of many Gothic Bands" (according to Mining Company) and "The Source for the Uninhibited" (thanks to Vamp.org). I'm still at a loss as to what that means. But regardless, it means a lot when we read the letters saying you've bookmarked one of the pages we spend a lot of time and care on. You thank us, it's our turn to thank you! There are still holiday/New Year cards left so if you want one, with your real name and mailing address.

CRAIG ARMSTRONG - THE SPACE BETWEEN US
This is an essential album for any Massive Attack fan. Craig Armstrong is responsible for the string arrangements on Massive Attack records and this album contains some altered versions of Massive Attack faves, instrumental and symphonic. Also on here is a song sung by Liz Frasier of Cocteau Twins different from the ones on Mezzanine. While this is no breakthrough album, it's grand and lush and sounds oh so pretty. The title and picture, however, are all too remeniscent of Chris Carter (of TG fame, not the football player or X-Files writer) and his first solo release, "The Space Between", but don't let that keep you from getting this one. - Jon Whitney

THE ORB - U.F.OFF
I'm not one for greatest hits packages, but this one is definately done right. While it serves as a great introduction to The Orb for beginners, it comes with a bonus CD with the initial pressing of remixes never before available. Something the fans won't be upset about buying. The songs are all mixed together a'la DJ-stylee and the selection is quite approvable. Now you can own "Little Fluffy Clouds" from that VW ad. - Jon Whitney

LASWELL/HARRIS/BERNOCCHI - VEVE
The second collaboration between these three, and what a fine disc it is. Low bass dub influenced music, the Mick Harris signature drum loops, and special effects by Eraldo Bernocchi. While Laswell and Harris have been mass producing music lately in the droves, the right combination always has a possibility of yielding a stellar product. Listen to this one loud. - Jon Whitney

PANACEA - TWISTED DESIGNZ
Panacea's second full-length release is even more impressive than his first. On this album, the grooves run deeper, the distortion louder, and all the "familiar" samples are gone. Here is one boy to watch as he has completely outdone himself. This disc is best enjoyed driving through a rural town blasted on 11 in the car. - Jon Whitney
