Info itself is great, liked the interview. It's the presentation that I'm not 100% d'accord with. But it's all subjective, I'm sure some people like the minimalistic touch and the blue/white theme and the rather uninspired Sonic1-on-grey-background-cover. That being said, as far as the musical content goes, the 3rd disc feels completely misplaced. Love the rest though, including the lovely demo tracks was a pretty neat idea. Love the sound of the Marble Zone demo and Chemical Plant's demo is like a complete new awesome song.
You didn't even buy a copy and you are complaining that the ****** color scheme of the booklet is a letdown? Either you have way too much time or just complain for the sake complaining.

Anything more than the CD with the demos is icing on the cake. I mean, seriously, how much time do you expect them to put into a niche CD that will sell maybe 5-10K copies worldwide?
