But within the familiar funk, other unexpected flourishes such as banjo riffs, saxophone squalor, and swing rhythms crawl into the mix....a downward spiral you'll enjoy plunging into."New Music Monthly (7/99, p.52) - "...[Jourgensen] has some magic left in him...[DARK SIDE's] nastiest moments...sound oddly quaint."12.29108
