      The solution to those pesky ear hairs that you wanted rid off! August 31, 2008
Written by Mattgroaning
An absolute stoater, as they say in these parts, and a must have to add to the collection. This is like a greatest hits reimagined tour. I absolutely love it. The 80’s tracks sound invigorated and really scorch along. The nineties and noughties material subtly reworked and cooking. Monster versions of LTIA and Red. Things are different and retooled. T-Lev really nails it all down in a way that I cannot define. He appears to play most of what Trey played, but only Trey can play it like he did, and yet takes it to places Trey did not. The double drumming is a relevation on many tracks, adding a brio that I feel the last double drum pairing did not. Pat and Gavin really compliment each other positively, as opposed to Bill and Pats complimentary contrasting(???? how do I say this and get it right?) styles. Ade and Robert just keep on keeping on, jostling, corruscating, duelling, soaring, searing and playing like no other lead/rhythm section on the planet ever. Inspirational playing. Overall less cluttered than the Double Trio and more texturally enhanced than the last quad incarnation. Why are you reading this when you should be downloading the gig?? Kudos to Discipline for this rare facility for the fans to be able to share in the music!! Keep up the great work.
