    • Golgotha's Review:
    In an attempt to write this review, I started to watch some Strongbad Emails in hopes of it blasting me off to planet OLD. Well guys I am here and I am ready to break [you]. Please hold onto all items while on this journey, because after all, the Thug might get ya.

    OLD are some sort of hybrid industrial/metal/psychedelic rock duo from New Jersey, who went on to do such acts as Khanate (which features both James Plotkin and Alan Dubin), Phantomsmasher, Lotus Eaters, FLUX (a duo with ex-Napalm Death skin basher Mick Harris). All through their career they pushed the boundaries of what man could do with Machine with such time warping classics as Lo Flux Tube (which featured ex-Nirvana guitarist Jason Everman on bass), Formula, and Musical Dimensions of Sleastak. Now that the little history lesson/current event review is over it is time to talk about Formula.

    Vocoded voice, looped guitar, synth guitar, bass, tapes, rhythm machine, and a drop of 303.

    Buy this album and leave me and my rock alone.
