Well, I'm a huge Aphex Twin/AFX fan, but this is probably Richard D. James' most widely known single. It's video is notorious (it scared the s**t out of me at 12; however, I always made sure to watch it when it was on...which was not that often, really). Arguably Chris Cunningham's most genius video work to date. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Az_7U0-cK0

I remember when they showed the hell out of this video on MTV. That was before the Power Pop movement of the late 90s.
How I miss MTV way back when.

This was a really cool song. I actually discovered this one after "Windowlicker" came out. The video for this one was really disturbing.

It was nominated for a VMA, but surprisingly didn't win.

I remember this vid (not exactly one that's easily forgettable), cool stuff. Song's good too.

I love the video, but the song, while good, is not one of his best. In fact, both Richard D James Album and Drukqs are Aphex going through the motions. Good thing he managed to pull "Windowlicker" in between and the Analord series after that.

If I had children, I would play them the Richard D. James Album as their lullabies every night. I think it's very soothing.
