5.0 out of 5 stars in a world of its own, September 29, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Telecommunication Breakdown (Audio CD)

OK, if you like jack dangers, bill laswell, brian eno, and can tolerate melle mel on one track, you've got to have this in your collection. I think I've listened to this disc more than MBM's Subliminal Sandwich (if that says anything). It also contains a nice multimedia thrill (dated, but what the hell?). And for you mac users, there's a nice little hard disc, too, so you're not left out in the cold.If you like the cut-up, multimedia scene, I also recommend the film Sonic Outlaws (from the creator of Tribulation 99), which is a mostly-Negativland documentary. But EBN and the Tape Beatles are also featured in a rather nice way. Buy this disc AND Sonic Outlaws and you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Inspired Satire, June 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Telecommunication Breakdown (Audio CD)

These guys work in the same style as bands like Negativland, taking samples from radio and TV news, commercials, and movies, and seamlessly mixing them into tracks that you can really get down and dance to. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

If you like this CD, definitely check out their VHS tape, "Commercial Entertainment Product", which you can find on amazon.com if you search for "Commercial Entertainment" (the "Product" is chopped, so if you search for the full name you won't find it!).

5.0 out of 5 stars EBN are one of my favorites, March 20, 2000

I first got introduced to EBN at a lecture I went to at York University on music videos and freedom. I had never heard of them before but after they showed the video for "Get Down", I was hooked. They are one of my absolute faves and I wish they would release more as soon as possible.
