i thought it was lost forever along with the EPK documentary.
it's a real record of a moment in time (emerging from what felt like years underground ) !
N.L.C.
Trashmonk is FAR too much underground though, only came across M.L.O. by a series of strange coincidences. Heard it first in a 'blue sapphire' state, when the state was beginning to mean more than reality. It brought me back :-)
