AllMusic[1]

Lyrically, Robot World addresses man's alienation from his fellow citizens due to the pervasive influence of computers/ machines/ virtual reality. Hence the album title, and the reason why it is generally agreed to be a concept album. Partial lyrics to the title track are printed in the booklet.

"EIP" and alternate version of "Robot World" were released on the B.E.I.P. CD EP, along with two Vortura tracks, unreleased at the time.
