<div>The Isness Lifeforms Alice In Ultraland</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Future Sound of London (or Amorphous Androgynous, same artists)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>From a review of "The Isness:"</div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="2">And so, through rune manipulation - and maybe just a little bit of cider - we open our third eye and see a vision of the future. Gary Cobain and the other one are atop Mount Vesuvius, capes and hair billowing in the wind. A droplet of sweat falls, as if in slow-mo, from Gary's beard as he grasps the microphone stand, which is made of gold. Behind him, the other one's hands blur through a glissando down the length of one of the 25 keyboards that surround him like a corral. All the while, sitarists, multiple drummers, a children's choir, a 64-piece orchestra, 'luminescence design co-ordinators', vibe watchers, tiger wranglers and dancing dwarves are a frenzy of activity. And the sound...the sound is like a beam of white light from heaven concentrated into a speck the size of the head of a pin, on which a million billion pixie space-elves dance.
<br></font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="2">It's a vision that is at once ludicrous and heroic. Just like this album<br><br>6/5 (this mark goes all the way out to six - it's one better)</font></div>

<div><font face="Verdana" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="2">You're not as old as the trees <br>Not as young as the leaves <br>You're not as free as the breeze <br>Not as open as the sea <br><br>And your heart hasn't found a home <br>Endlessly it seems to roam
<br>One day you will find inexhaustable ecstacy <br>And you will see <br>That you're beautiful and always have been <br>And everybody else can see <br>The love that you've been looking for <br>Is right there inside your door
<br><br>Little Miss Divinity <br>You're the one that you've been looking for <br>Little Miss Divinity <br>Won't you lay your love on thee? <br><br>Hey now now now now now <br>Hey now na na hey <br>Hey now now now now now
<br>Hey now na na hey <br><br>If you need a friend then I'll be sailing right by your side <br>But if you need a lover you must leave it all behind <br>And if you need direction, the world can seem unkind <br>So listen closely my love
<br>You have time <br>You're doing fine <br> ---------</font></div>
