Orbital succeed here with sounds and arrangements that echo their mid-1990s releases Snivilisation and In Sides, albums that stretched beyond their acid roots to become epics of a different mind, full of 4/4 braindance with beautifully narrative qualities. This LP leans heavily on the female and childlike vocal samples that gave those releases their distinctive feel, from the rising and falling heartbeat of Monsters Exist to the arcade action of Buried Deep Within. It also clearly references the brothers progressive politics from song titles to studio dialogue, culminating in album closer There Will Come a Time, a meditation on the inevitability of all life and science.
