Comments: I'm not quite sure what Mike Knott was thinking with this one.  Maybe he wanted to give Deitiphobia fans something new, or maybe he wanted to try and satisfy the demand for the then out-of-print originals.  Whatever the reason, most of these tracks, at their best, give Deitiphobia fans a longing to hear the originals right then and there.  At the worst, this release would turn off those unfamiliar with Deitiphobia's efforts from trying them out.  This release is nothing short of nausiating most of the time.  At best, it sounds like a kid at a switchboard of Deitiphobia sounds and short segments (from their first 2 albums) just pushing buttons randomly, usually in multiples of 4.  Tracks 7 and 10 are particularly annoying, having long 1 to 2 minute continuous broken-record stretches of scream segments.  So why, you ask, do I have it in my collection if I have no intention of listening to it?  Well, collectors do weird things like that.  It's just there for discography completion purposes only.  I have owned it, and sold it before my "completion" mode.  I got this copy new for $4 and wouldn't recommend paying a penny more than $5 for it, shipping included, period.
