    Its a shame that the 10 bonus audio tracks included on the DVD were not also made available on the CD.

        Top album. A tapestry of weird and wonderful sound packed into every intro, verse, chorus, etc. Champion lyrics, we are all fucked so lets be fucked together, basically. Love it. BD
        + 5.1 is one of my desert island disks without a doubt.
