I've been very familiar with everything up through 2002 except the Release/Relapse releases. I'd heard them, but not studied them like the Triumvirate releases and the Crowd Control Activities one. I know it was a different time, and that Relapse was in the experimental business, but DT hadn't gotten a Pure CD, a Groundfault CD, a RRRecycled tape, a Troniks CD, a G.R.O.S.S. tape, or been involved with any other series that exposed so many to so many. Did I miss something? Maybe that was Ichiro Tsuji's doing, but it is still really cool that DT ended up so readily available and introduced to that big audience. Not many were giving DT the time of day by then, and if any new audience was going to appreciate him, it would be the metal crowd. These are really good albums, as one should expect.
