Geoff Towner, in Revolver Street press, described it as 'acoustic space-folk, hip hop beats and electronic minimalism' saying that 'the production has a 70's T-Rex feel'.[4] A video clip was made by Simon Castelow (Sidesign) for the track 'Lovekult' and broadcast on ABCs' music video program rage on 8 May 1998.[5] StructureFuture Unseen 'is structured so that instrumental "photon beltish" soundscapes alternate in sequence with the vocal-featuring "Frankie Deathish" tracks'.[6] The tracks alternate between the ambiguous beats and intricately textured electronic soundscapes of the Photon Belt, and the metaphysical confessional of frankie death's acoustic based songs. 'And it does certainly seem that the band was conscious of song placement ensuring the flow and smooth transition from one track to the next'.[7]Track listing

Reviews{{Album ratings|rev1 = Auto Reverse |rev1score = (2000)[8] }} Future UnseenThis is an incredibly original album![9]Think late-60s/early 70s Pink Floyd psychedelia mixed with the funky elements of the Beastie Boys, a hint of early-80s Adam Ant gothic-pirate gun-ho-spirit, childhood dreamlike memories and you'll get something close to what this is....Overall, a wonderfully great album that takes many listens to fully appreciate. There is so much in it! Sadly though, I think it may be largely overlooked by the music press as a) it's an underground release; and b) it doesn't fit neatly into any established genres. Actually, they make new ones.[10]... huge noise soundscapes...[11]A strangled, intergalactic kind of folk stuff (listening is understanding, you see).[12]A wild ride into the cosmic and chaotic.[13]Melbournian collective's magnum opus.[14]" This recording is something of an uniquity within the context of Australian independent music...'Future Unseen' is a grandiose, layered project. The album is decidedly "psychedelic" in feel and conceptual in execution."[15]Lovekult"Lovekult" just bubbles under until it reaches the chorus and blows up!..The singer sounds like Brett Anderson from Suede. The song itself is a cross between T Rex and Jesus Jones".[16]I love the way they introduce the song, with a little kid saying "Presenting Frankie Death and The Photon Belt!".[17]The next song I enjoyed is the extremely cheesy "Lovekult"...It reminds me a bit of "Very Groovy boots" by the Electric Hellfire Club. Not particularly industrial or gothic but I don't think it is meant to be. Enjoyable as a tongue-in-cheek novelty song.[18]References1. ^Revolver Street Press, The Frankie from Outta Space (Review), 20 July, Syd, AUS, 1998. 2. ^Jerry Kranitz, published in Aural Innovations # 14 Jan, USA, 2001 3. ^Death, Frankie and Photon Belt (Musical group) Soundtrack for the film Future unseen Subversive Records, Port Melbourne, Vic, AUS, 1998 4. ^Geoff Towner, Revolver Street press, Sydney, Australia, 10 August 1998 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.abc.net.au/rage/playlist/archive/1998/19980508.htm |title=Playlist |publisher=Abc.net.au |date=1998-05-08 |accessdate=2012-02-17}} 6. ^Review of 'Future Unseen',Blantant Propaganda, Issue 2, 1999 7. ^Jerry Kranitz, published in Aural Innovations # 14, January, USA, 2001) 8. ^Auto Reverse review 9. ^Ian C Stewart, Autoreverse issue 10, Spring 2000, USA. 10. ^Review of 'Future Unseen',Blantant Propaganda, Issue 2, ACT, AUS, 1999 11. ^Craig New in Revolver Street Press, 19 June, Syd, AUS, 2000 12. ^Revolver Street Press, The Frankie from Outta Space (Review), 20 July, Syd, AUS, 1998 13. ^Jerry Kranitz, published in Aural Innovations # 14 January, USA, 2001 14. ^Geoff Towner, Revolver Street press, August, Syd, AUS, 1998 15. ^Matt Gleeson presenter of Burning Vinyl , 3CR Radio, Melbourne, Australia 16. ^Ian C Stewart, Auto Reverse issue 10, Spring, USA, 2000 17. ^'Last Sigh' Magazine ({{ISSN|1529-5826}}), Review of 'Lovekult' on Compilation CD, AUS, 2000 18. ^'Blatant Propaganda Volume 1', Reviews, 'Revelations' ('Flesh & Wire') magazine, Adelaide, February, 1999, AUS Notes
