Despite the lame cover art and cheesey album title, this is an absolutely fantastic example of electronica as a complex, culture-blending, and highly lyrical (in the sense of telling an overall story w/the music, not w/lyrics per se). An arresting mix of ambient overlays and pounding beats. Excellent for a high-adrenaline or endorphin-inducing work-out trail-running or mtn biking, as well as when having to bang out an inspired power point.

This album has remained on my top 10 favorites list for years and I never get tired of it.
