According to Mixmag, Nearly God will be released in the States. They are
just waiting for a couple of samples to be cleared. Since the import price
is pretty insane, I'd wait. Nearly God is Tricky. Female vocals on the disc
include Cath Coffey, Bjork, Alison Moyet, Martina, etc. It's good...a bit
more raw and not as produced as Maxinqueue and not as many beats.
