D'ya reckon its worth getting hold off and does it still stand out as

piece of music.
I don't even think the two albums are even comparable, despite the
names. They're both brilliant, but totally different SAWII is *very*
minimal and textural...ambient in the truest sense. It's a lot less
accessible than the first one, which is probably why you've seen bad
reviews. You either love it, or just don't get it at all I guess. It's
not for everyone, but I'd say it's definitely worth getting if you like
more challenging stuff.
