Negative Positive
Title: interesting and entertaining, but not essential
Review: Obviously very expensive. Not essential for casual fans, Echo Dek features Dub reworkings of several songs from the Vanishing Point cd, the new versions created by Adrian Sherwood. But completely devoid of anything familiar from that cd - nothing in the way of lead vocals, choruses or traditional song structure. ( DUH - that's why it's called "dub" )Layers upon layers of echo laden drum and bass tracks, snippets of vocals. A few trippy sound effects here and there. Buy it if you MUST ( I did, and rather enjoy it ), but this is for serious fans and completists only.
