Stillborn (EP)
''Stillborn'' is an EP by Unit:187, released on November 4, 1997 by 21st Circuitry. For the songs to be played on the radio in the United States label owner Don Blanchard had to remove profanity from several of the tracks to create radio edits. Reception AllMusic awarded ''Stillborn'' two and a half out of five stars. ''Aiding & Abetting'' commented that the material featuring contributions from other musicians was of high quality but criticized the album for not living up to '' Loaded'' and said "the only real problem here is that three of the nine tracks are radio edits, which basically shorten good songs into mindless (and less interesting) snippets." ''Sonic Boom'' called the album "quite a disappointment" and "as a result, unless you are a radio DJ, don't bother with this EP as the new album ''Loaded'' has all of this material in a much better represented format." Fabryka Music Magazine awarded the album a two out of four. Track listing Personnel Adapted from the ''Sti ...
