 "New" "album" out now on Rephlex - actually it was recorded (according
 to someone on usenet) at the same time as "Succour", and it is only 35
 minutes long with 6 tracks, so it is not new and barely an album.  The
 time of recording seems about right - "the Seefeel release on Rephlex"
 hasn't been anticipated for quite as long as the new MBV album, but
 almost.

 6 tracks - one is a version of "Utreat", and the other five are like
 the quieter moments of "Succour".  "Ashdecon", on first listen, is the
 only track showing signs of genius, but the others are pretty good and
 it took me a while to get into "Succour".  Shame about the price and
 length, though.
