Recall is something else, a nightmarish techy roller that pulls you in by the scruff of your neck and commands you to move. I can't help being reminded of the movie Alien when listening to it, the paranoid energy just seems like the perfect soundtrack to Ripley running her ass off from the xenomorph. Brilliant. The other tracks are fantastic as well, but the a side steals the show for me personally.

*Edit* Quite disgusted with myself for glossing over the D side: Bi_Polar, a pitch dark, unhinged creeper of a track that easily equals Recall in atmosphere, whilst being intense in a far subtler - and possibly more menacing manner. Very reminiscent of Konflict / Kemal & Rob Data from this era (as was a lot of Sinthetix' output), this puts you in mind of some kind of deserted, outer space, underwater laboratory, with sounds that invoke feelings of deep isolation and dread...that is of course until you're caught off guard by a very sneaky, brilliantly done switch for the second drop as the anxiety ramps up because surprise surprise, the laboratory is infested with facehuggers! Bi_Polar indeed, Sinthetix. So yes, big, big EP. Nightmares have never sounded better.
