Re: Crocodile preview... listen to Pete Tong now...
I was already excited for Oblivion With Bells...now that the lead single is almost here, i'm getting jumpy!

The beginning percussion is very reminiscent of TMO and much of AHDO, the shaker sound...the compression kills the details, though, so i'm not worried...this will undoubtedly rock in the clubs!

Love the growly bassline...classic UW!

The reverb doesn't bother me...gives it a LOT of atmosphere, and Karl's singling is lovely! The vocoded bit ~4:30 is indecipherable, but what else is new? JAL to Tokyo was a lot more difficult to understand throughout.

Personally, i like this better on first blush than TMO...there's just a lot more going on in Crocodile. And, i like that it apparently mixes into Beautiful Burnout...maybe the album will feature more continuous mixes (think the first half of the Chems' "Dig Your Own Hole" or "Puppy" by Fluke).

i agree with what was written above: bring on those bells!
