This review is kind of funny:
On each of the album's four tracks (one track per side), Kirk and Mallinder combine simple, repetitive keyboard riffs and basslines with jerky drumbeats, and proceed to beat them to death over the course of eight minutes or so. In typical CV fashion, eerie voices float through the mix and Mallinder doesn't sing the lyrics so much as chant them. Each of the tracks has enough juice to grab the ear for a few minutes, but they tend to wear out their welcome after a while. Still, for those few minutes at least, "Kino" and "Ghostalk" in particular rank among the Cabs' more infectious compositions. [source]
FWIW, I like it. Some versions of the EP are spread over to records, with one track on each side. I have the Canadian pressing with one piece of vinyl with two tracks on each side.
