"Given the fact that Seven Red Seven has never failed to keep me happy, it's very hard to be completely unbiased. I'll just stick to the nitty gritty and maybe it'll help.This EP is an excellent mixture of rock guitar / electronic noise that grabs you by the ears and spins you around. The remixes of "Bass State Coma" are all unique to this recording. The first version is a rock/electronic mix that works very well, and gets your blood flowing. The "Think Tank" versions (mixed by ex-Information Societist Paul Robb) are somewhat trancelike and ethereal, but it's a nice counterpoint to the first version, giving it an entirely different feel without changing the intent. But the two reworkings of "Thinking of You" (one of which is hidden on the end of track 5) make this recording worth purchasing. The Sonik Pulse Mix is a mostly instrumental electronic rendition, while the hidden track is a 3:43 rock version that updates the sound of the classic track from "Shelter". It's an excellent example of how a new direction isn't necessarily a deviation from a path... it's merely a different mindset.Buy this. I'm sure you were going to anyways."
