160-gram LP. Gatefold sleeve with new artwork. The elusive allure of Video-Aventures is challenging to capture, and Megaphone/Knock'em Dead's reissue of their second LP, Camera (In Focus) Camera (Al Riparo) (1984, Tago Mago, France), reveals an album with a conviction in paradox that serves only to magnify their mystery. Plunging feverishly where their debut (Musique pour Garcons et Filles, 1979, Recommended Records) traipsed and alighted with informed whimsy, Camera (In Focus) Camera (Al Riparo) retains the duo of Dominique Grimaud and Monique Alba, abetted strikingly (and, often, surprisingly) by Jac Berrocal, Guigou Chenevier (Etron Fou Leloublan), Sophie Jausserand, Gilbert Artman (Lard Free, Catalogue, Urban Sax), Cyril Lefebvre, and Daniel Deshays. The result is a tour de force in several significant respects. Camera (In Focus) Camera (Al Riparo) is not obviously similar to it's beguiling predecessor - indeed, there are moments in which it calls for the listener's intrepidity and insight - but it is at least as captivating. Venturing further from traditional instrumentation, Video-Aventures employ elements of musique concrete, disjointed and enfeebled speech, accelerated percussion, and synthesized physical function (pulse, breathing, etc.). The chronicle of a singular process from a single perspective, it narrates the deterioration of a mind in the aftermath of duress. That mind is the narrator, but only from a sensory standpoint, as if the listener were seated inside the narrator's skull. What the listener hears is what the subject hears - complete with pounding heartbeat, gasping breath, blood rushing through the head - amounting to a devastating treatise against ends justifying means. Regardless of interpretation, Camera (In Focus) Camera (Al Riparo) succeeds on it's own extensive musical merits. This record is borne of the dissonant, microscopic interim between impulse and accordant action. The change that occurs within that tiny lag is seldom heralded, but on Camera (In Focus) Camera (Al Riparo), Video-Aventures inhabits it, isolating the transformation/mutation that crystallizes in flashes both smaller than fully formed thoughts and containing the universe of perception. Within each track, Video-Aventures present an evolution, but not a hierarchical one - in the specificity of their arrangements, they convey an instability that is unnervingly true to the variability and unpredictability of memory. This quality, which had punctuated their debut album, becomes here a harrowing pillar that unites every track within a claustrophobic continuum of emotions. The result is an opus that contains seamless and varied musical brilliance, conceptual continuity, and indomitably humane integrity.

My favorite
Flavor Name: Tangerine Tango, Size: 30 Count (Pack of 2)
Great ingredients, great taste that’s not overpowering but still full of flavor. I’m hooked on these and will happily finish a tin in a few hours if I let myself >_<

The best tasting “mints”!
Flavor Name: Tangerine Tango, Size: 30 Count (Pack of 2), Flavor Name: Tangerine Tango, Size: 30 Count (Pack of 2)
These mints taste amazing! I have been looking for something just like this without any type of mint flavor and these do not disappoint. I am trying to kick my jolly ranchers addiction, and these will work for that. I take a medicine that tastes quite nasty, so finding something sugar free that tastes great was really needed. Plus they help with dry mouth, which is a plus. I originally ordered the small 2 pack, but as soon as I popped one in my mouth, I knew I was going to need more, so I have already ordered the bigger package. Do not hesitate to buy these!

Decent producut with few drawbacks
Flavor Name: Tangerine Tango, Size: 30 Count (Pack of 2)
Ordered this product for the first time during Prime Day when it was on discount. I can only speak to the Tangerine Tango flavor.
Pros:
- Comes in a cute little tin as opposed to a plastic bag
- Easy to carry around
- Good value if you can get it on discount
Cons:
- Flavor is very subtle
- Dissolves fairly quickly
- Can experience some moisture issues if left in a warm/hot place
- Uses "natural flavoring"
Overall, it's a decent product but I'll be sticking to the gums.

Terrible.
Flavor Name: Tangerine Tango, Size: 65 Count (Pack of 3)
I can't speak to the other flavors, but the tangerine is nasty. It reminds me of some really bad bone broth I had, and I don't know why that would I love be in these mints. I love PUR gum, but these mints are terrible.

Watermelon flavored gum
Flavor Name: Watermelon, Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
I love anything watermelon. This one is very tasty, I have bought this one several times now.
I like it that it is using Xylitol and Erythritol, no Aspartame and the sugar won't affect any user's glucose and cause insulin problems. On top of that it is also using palm tree sap.
It isn't hard to chew, it is just right, I can chew them for a long while working on slimming my face. I just hate the type of gum with xylitol to fall apart while I am chewing it.
