		The first track of this EP ‘Mongolian Death Worm’ opens with a very catchy riff, going into a very predictable drum intro.
		The last track begins with a hint of a Mexican feel, this track is too long as an instrumental for my liking, as there is no development of ideas, just increasing use of panning effects… the last track shouldn’t really have been included.
