Spontaneous Combustion by Triax

With a tracklist that largely amounts to a load of eccentric puns, Spontaneous Combustion amounted to the inevitable double album - that in fact lasts longer than most triple albums! No simple description accompanied this release, as it's range of styles is exceptionally diverse - albeit all uniquely Triax. Instead, "A short run-down on the moods..." was listed, so read on...

p.s. The only reason this is currently deleted as a 2xCD-R edition is because the release sold-out of its first 20 copy run and requires a redesign in order to print the cover with currently available equipment.
