This is a great little gift from SP to their fans. The CD has everything a fan could want: Great artwork, CD-ROM features (including a video of Spasmolytic), never-released material, and great live performances of classic SP songs (excluding the beginning of Tin Omen, which for some reason sounds like you're in a sewer). The older material that never saw the light of day (Jackhammer, Splasher, Double Cross) are not necessarily strong Puppy songs, but they are all great peeks into the inner workings of the band at their early stages. Since I love this kind of fodder, I was more than pleased with this release. If you're not a big Skinny Puppy fan, this is probably not for you. Instead, check out Cleanse, Fold and Manipulate, or perhaps Rabies. If you like what you hear, then please do continue to collect material from one of the more influential industrial/electro bands of our time.

This CD, specifically #3, is incredible. When I put this on, I always end up sitting perfectly placed in front of my speakers, reveling in it's, for lack of a better word, beauty. It is fantastic.

There is nothing wrong with this double-CD set. In fact I would have bought it if all that was on it was "Uranus Cancelled". The chance to hear pre-mixed synth lines from Knowhere is the best thing to happen to me as a fan of Last Rights! Proves SP does care about not only about it's fans, but more importantly, it's music!!!

I was conflicted between buying this or bites(both are my favorites). I had listened to both and I felt bites has better songs, yet, I believe all together the multi-media stuff, amazing cover art, and wide range of songs made this a better buy. I got it used, in very good condition for $2.58. I truly love this album, it is amazing.

To begin the cover style is very grim and it is by far their most interesting. My only issue with the case is that the cds may fall out. I see that the two flaps are designed to hold the cds down, but on some instances they may fall out. The songs are from various releases, and therefore, they all vary in sound. The songs on vol. 3 to me make a deeper impression though. The more ambient tracks such as Carry, Guilty, Jackhammer, and Splasher definitely stand out for me. Also Brap(song) from remission, Last Call, Dead Doll, and Deadlines from Bites are all superb. Vol.4 is very good too, however I prefer the older Skinny Puppy. Brap is a must have, it should be bought new, because the used copy I got had some case ware and this is classic that should be kept in good condition.

Brap was the first Skinny Puppy album I purchased, many years ago. It made me a true fan and I can honestly say that I cannot find one band that can come close to the type of talent that SP has. Disc 2 has a harder darker edge from Too Dark Park and Last Rights. Disc 1 is the one that I prefer, it is a trip into another dimension and I highly recommend listening to it from track 2 to the end. It is mainly sounds with little voice interuptions and it seems like the songs just flow into each other. If had to pick favorites from Brap I would say All Eyes, The Soul That Creates, Dead Doll, and Last Call.
