5.0 out of 5 stars holy sh**, January 13, 2000

By	Dave Rausch (Madison WI) - See all my reviews

I bought this album during the 16volt concert at the Warehouse in Milwaukee, Wi. It was the best concert ever! That was two years ago. I still love listening to this CD. People who don't like this music don't really know why they are listening to industrial. I used to think it was the best album I had ever heard, and even though I have other favorites, this one rates at least 7 stars, not just five. If you like bands like Chemlab or KMFDM (R.I.P.) you just have to like supercoolnothing. If you are lucky, you might also be able to find 16volt's long lost release "letdowncrush"

peace

5.0 out of 5 stars A terrific album, November 28, 1999

By	Scot Ecker (Madison, WI) - See all my reviews

This is truly a great album. It combines industrial style beats and sampling with pure punk aggression. There is not a bad song on the album.

Super Cool Nothing seems more complete than 16 volts previous records (which I also highly reccommend). Each track makes sense and leads you into the next.

This is easily the best album I bought in 1998.

It's very sad that 16 volt broke up and we will not be able to hear any new music.

If you like any kind of industrial, punk or other aggressive music you will certainly enjoy this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Favourite CD of all time, April 20, 2000

By	Gabriel (Portland, OR (City of Roses, baby)) - See all my reviews

I've been a fan of 16 Volt since Wisdom, and they've steadily improved as they wrote and released more material. On this CD, I feel that the band (mainly Eric Powell) were really onto something huge. Every tune is unique, spanning a broad range of influences and styles. Songs like Moutheater, Happy Pill, And I go ... No one else has created sounds or tunes like these. The appearance of Chris Vrenna (former NIN drummer) really adds a whole new dimension to the 16 Volt phenomenon. It's an abslute travesty that Eric has called it quits. Appropriately, however, Supercoolnothing is certainly the masterpiece that I anticipated; a perfect capper for a string of amazing records.

Eric, if you ever happen to read this ... 'This won't destroy me.' You said it yourself. So don't let it happen.
