The jams of "Inception" are, asadvertised, pretty much just that: germination of ideas, creativefoundations. Demos really. The twitchy electronic hybrids of ambient,noise and techno that was their signature at the time is of courseevident and the production is clean, but this is not thickly textured,fully polished, fully realized product. I hoped for diamonds in therough, something spectacular yet inexplicably unreleased, but the factis the crème de la crème found its way in finished form to the albumsand EPs. But at least the rabid completists, those willing to shell out$20 per disc, get more insight into the process. As well as more of thelate Dwayne Rudolf Goettel's output, considered by many to be thecrucial creative component of the original grouping's magic. MarkSpybey is credited on 4 tracks but, unfortunately, his vocals arenowhere to be found. "Sidewinder Snake" from the "Sidewinder" EP promois mysteriously resurrected as "Left the Radio On" and "Tweeter Blower"from the "Charlie's Family" soundtrack reappears in a disappointinglyless noisy and rhythm-less form. "Krackerzz" stands out as a possiblyfinished track that didn't make a final cut, understandably so.Overall, everything sounds too flat and too thin. It just makes me wantto listen to the brilliant "Furnace", "TEOSP" and their accompanyingEPs instead.
