@the69removalist why'd you get beat up?

[tootlepipski]

[TheDamned999]

their music is so atmospheric, doesnt make sense but cant explain it, in short their pretty cool

Looking back, this album is REALLY underrated-maybe it's not "cerebral"like Kraftwerk, but it's so fresh and distinct even after all these years....really makes you realize what we've been "subjected to"by the industry of late

@eastsidejessie Actually, this is the original track order of this album, because order from the U.S. & Canadian issues of the very same album was re-arranged and removed "Tokyo" from the issues. So if you live in North America, Track 1 will be "I Ran (So Far Away)", for everyone else, they follow the original tracklist, starting with "Modern Love Is Automatic". If you want to get an import copy that includes "Tokyo" as an extra track, I recommend eBay or Amazon.

@nouveauxdecadence Same here!!! I got to see them live for the first time last night, and they opened with this song. It. Was. Incredible. :D

@nouveauxdecadence Not ONE single person I knew knew them let alone liked them. They missed out on so so so very much. I was lucky enough to have gotten their original albums. I'd say I was THE lucky one! Fools :-) The lyrics alone are just so profound and have so much meaning. "The more you live the more you love..." "What am I supposed to do..." "Don't out your heart in mortal danger..." The list is endless... Then there are the rhythms. Thank God for letting AFOS share....
