I think i've got a bit of tinnitus in my right ear.

I've always had a kind of low whistling in both ears when laying awake at night but I woke up the other morning with quite a loud whistling in aforementioned ear and it hasnt gone yet...

I obviously blame Mark and Tom.

DAMN YOU BOTH TO HELL!!!!!

(But what a ride, eh?)

(Ps. Any christians out there, I'm joking.)

You are absolutely correct in your diagnosis of Tinnitus.
I've got it too, but I sadly managed to contract it from Autechre's Anvil Vapor instead. As far as I know, it's the top-end in music that wreck's one's ears, and if not treated properly, can lead to some pretty screwed-up hearing.
BUT, there is hope: http://www.t-gone.com/

I'm half way to recovery by laughing myself silly over this !
I wonder if she got it from listening to Aphex's last outing ?

She's not your mum, is she ?

Barb used to suffer with it I think Matt...

Two classic tracks mr. spl.
(STILL on rotation round these parts.)
Im not sure whats given me the tinnitus.
Its either Orbital Ali Pali 97/98 or ear plugs every night for a year (not joking) due to feck noisy neighbours.
Thank god I moved. But if your reading this Simon the music school teacher in Ampthill, one day Im going to run you out of town.
Or over.
