actually that sometimes does work - the manager of my local "Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf" gives me big discounts on their food as I'm such a good customer, and I have several hookerfriends who give me free sex...
but yeah, Draft is a pretty good album, I just rarely want to listen to it. When I do, it's to marvel at the sound design, not because the music moves me. I "respect" Ae's Confield and post output; I just don't love it that much. I everything from Chiastic through EP7, though. Amber and Incunabula are good too when I'm in the mood. Strangely Tri Rep does little for me, though I like Anvil Vampyre and Garbage.
I'll probably be spending $900 to fly back to the States to see them in concert, so I hope that erases my karmic debt.
