I'm pretty much the opposite polarity here, apart from Amon Tobin. There's only one BoC track I like - Telephasic somethingorother, and the couple Manitoba tracks I've heard have sucked. I think the A/SP/AT group falls farther down the "fucked up shit" axis than the other three. The apex of Aphex's 54 Cymru Beats, for instance, sounds like a bench grinder eating a chainsaw that is trying to cut copper hex stock being milled in a CNC lathe by cybernetic rats with corrosive metal teeth.

I will have to check out the Swordsmen.
