Really enjoying the new record, but just one gripe. I was SURE Paul would put out nice packaging, at least for the initial run . The inlay card is nice enough for the CD but it's in a 'normal', shitty jewel case
I prefer jewel cases to shitty cardboard ones.
Cheaper in HMV - only £9.95!
That's where i got mine 8)

Like the album (a bit short for my liking tho).

Favs at the moment are:

-Haven't we met before?
-Patchwork Guilt
-Simple Sounds
-Aggro
-For Silence

The others aren't bad, but i'm sure i'll like them more after a few more plays.

Why are they called "jewel" cases anyways? What's wrong with calling them by their real name - plastic.

I just ordered the album. I really can't afford it right now but Orbital-related stuff I always buy straight away no matter what! Can't wait to hear it anyway and my expectations are even higher having read some of the comments here. I got the cd single of please today and it's great to find all those little gems tucked away on b-sides. My only gripe with the single is that they didn't bother with any artwork, or if they did, it took 10 seconds to do... :shock: I know they're a little indie label but it just makes the artist look cheap and amateurish imho...

since their inception they'd just been waiting for the day when they'd get to fulfil their destiny by holding the albums of this little lady....

Lets say I have Paul's two singles, Gloopy and Old School Tie. Anyone have any ideas on where one might sequence them into The Ideal Condition to make it a little longer?

Would you not add "Seance" and "Ignition" too?
