It may be overshadowed by 'Mechanize', but this album also has some unique highlights too. The melancholic instrumental 'religon is flawed because Man is flawed' is a nice yet tense break from all the heaviness and industrial aggression, whereas the first few songs of the album offer some excellent and brutal death metal charged riffs. Yes, I prefer 'Mechanize', but this one is so good I could listen to it again and again and not really dislike it at all.

Me listening to this album:

1. Groovy... yet heavy
2. Hell yeah!
3. Wow, this is close to Demanufacture...
4. No wait, these drums sound awkward...
5. Sh** all I can hear now these stupid drums, sounding flat like a kid beating a spoon on a pot.
6. Drums irritate me even further - with not a single note adding any depth to the mix.

This album is butchered by a dry, soulless drum machine.

Dissemble is the only song worth anything.

Now that the "remix" album with a human drummer is available, I guess this version here is... obsolete.

That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.
