Has anyone formed an opinion of the album yet? I've only heard
the title track, "Ultra Obscene," but I thought it was pretty
great. Reviews seem to be mixed on the album, though.

-->I've got it, luckily on mp3 so i didn't have to pay for it.

i found it to be really disappointing. the production is good but the
lyrics and singer really ruin it. it sounds like it was produced to appeal
to a radio listening pop target audience. it almost reminds me of something
like david bowies foray into, "electronica." no real musical direction just
a whole mash of different sounds thrown together and a vocalist added in so
it will have radio appeal.

i would avoid this one...
