    A slight identity crisis.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 16, 2001

    That's what this album suffers from. It's as though Richard D. James was trying to incorporate all the elements in his previous works, namely the ambience found in S.A.W. 1 and 2, Polygon Window and the harsh, abrasive fucked-up noise of Classics. As a result, the album succeeds in being a jack of both trades yet master of neither. "Ventolin", for instance, while very harsh and grating, lacks the energy found in tracks such as "We Have Arrived" (from Classics). And the more laid-back songs (eg. "Wet Tip Hen Ax") aren't a patch on what Richard accomplished with Selected Ambient Works 85-92.

    Elsewhere you may have seen me say that I prefer this album to the Richard D. James Album and Come To Daddy. Well, feel free to ignore my previous statements. This is undoubtably Aphex's worst album, and I don't find myself listening to it very often. I agree completely with what Dadropsta said below, and would recommend this album to the die-hard Aphex Twin fan only. If you're new to Aphex Twin, go and buy Drukqs - that album fucking *RULES* !!

    Way to over-rated.....

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 3, 2001 | 1 out of 1 found this I Care Because You Do review helpful

    Okay, this album has been touted as the best that Mr. James has come-out with. I would have to diss-agree whole-heartedly. As a collection of music it just doesn't hold up to 'Richard D. James' or to the 'Come To Daddy EP'. Those who say that this is his best really confuse me, because it's not. It's not even his second best. And 'Ventolin' (the track I was supposed to watch out for) is just a load of high-pitched squealings and distorted bass drums.......noise in everybody elses language.
    For ppl new to Aphex Twin, don't get this if you haven't already got 'Come To Daddy' or 'Richard D. James'....as they are superior by far......and that's all i got to say on that one.

    Some of Richard James' best work

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 20, 2000

    "I Care..." is definately the kind of music that Richard should have stuck with. This marks the peek of his electronic ideas to date. Every song is full of intricate rhythms, with usually never conventional percussion, and subtle catchy melodies. If you like experimental electronic music, with tinges of ambient music, this is a classic in that area.

    I am OBSESSED forever!!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 11, 2000

    This cd is the best in the 'Aphex' series. I'll tell you why. Intelligent Techno. No track is repetitive, or the same as another. Every track takes on its own form, creative and genius! The other aphex albums are a little either too playful, or too serious. THIS ONE my friend, KICKS ASS!!!! One of my personal favorites of all time!!! Even if you don't like the idea of techno, you will enjoy this. This is why they call Richard "The Techno version of Mozart"!

    The best Aphex album...for real!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 22, 2000

    It's very challenging and innovative. Ventolin rocks. That's the track to watch out for.
