Only for the diehard fans who proabably already have the EPs

"Rost Pocks consists mainly of EP singles from MoM's first two releases, Vulvaland and Iaora Tahiti, and three of the four tracks from their EP Cache Coeur Naif with Laetitia Sadier from stereolab (the instrumental fourth track 'glim' is not included here). A few of the tracks are offered up in slightly different versions and there are some EP only tracks that appear as well. Noticeably absent are EPs from Niun Niggung. I would have loved to see the inclusion of the Disk Dusk or Distroia EPs. However, as most of the tracks are from MoM's earlier more mellower EP releases, this disc comes across as very laidback and downtempo-ish. Not a bad thing. Esssentially this a disc solely for the diehard completist MoM fans (who chances are own all these EPs already). There's nothing new here. This is MoM's second release of rehashed material in the last 12 months (Agit Itter It It from March of last year being the other release). That's not a bad thing, because this is MoM and any MoM is better than no MoM but come on Andy and Jan, it's time for you guys to put out something new . . . soon.Track Listing:1 frosch
