Been a few months now and I can say that my predictions for myself have come true. When I do play this album, I usually go from Black Poppies thru Hilo Sky and then skip to Gene Pool, and then I'm out. I do like the album, but overall this is the most skipping I do on any album (the full Drift mega-album aside.) Thats 7 tracks I'm very 'eh' on, and Sweet Lands Experience gets a pass because its still in the middle of the good run.

I will say that Techno Shinkansen has elevated quite a lot to me. As well, And the Colour Red works MUCH more cohesively on the album proper than as a single. But that second half is a total skip-o-rama for me. Even if individually each song is fine (except for King of Haarlem.. ugh) they're all tracks that I have no interest in listening to again. Contrast that to BF or AHDO where I don't skip a single track (and that includes my dislike of Ess Gee.)
