In The Fishtank 9 - Leans a bit close to the "boring" side of the fence. I remember thinking (before it was released) that it sounded promising, considering the talent involved. Then I bought it and felt a bit disappointed.The thing just goes nowhere. Sounds too much like improv for the sake of improve which is (almost...) always boring. Doesn't take too many directions, kinda feels the same way from begining to end.
Hidros 3 - FANTASTIC! I love the utter-strutter-weird-creepiness of Kim's vocals. + Mats G.'s contrabass sax sneakin' in and out, sounding like a a small prairie creature being sodomized by a Hippo. Very colorful record, full of surprises....Vulgar and fun and bloody and pretty and all sorts of this 'n thats. And that thank you section in the liner notes, probably the largest I've ever seen. Mats seems to dig almost everything, not a bad thing.
