Would someone kindly mail me some objective recommendations for getting Front 242 music?

Personally, I don’t have a whole lot, but…Front by Front is good, best track (imho) being #10, Welcome to Paradise (“Hey poor! You don’t have to be poor anymore! Jesus is here!’) Good sampling…I’ve got both of the new albums…probably like the newest one (05:22:09:12 Off) better. A bit more accessible to me…a wierd blend of old 242, recent Ministry, and Einsturzende Neubauten. <grin>

re: Machines of Loving Grace

I found out about them a while ago from a friend…have everything I can find.

album === Machines of Loving Grace
single == Burn Like Brilliant Trash (now out of print, Reznor produced)
single == Rite of Shiva
album === Concentration

Good stuff (imho). New album, while not produced by Reznor, definitely has some of his touch to it…probably picked up some hints while working on the remixes of BLBT(AJF). Nifty…I like it. <grin>
