Distort is a remix album by Collide, released on January 13, 1998 by Re-Constriction Records.[1] [2] The album was remastered and re-released with a few additional tracks for the 2006 release.
Aiding & Abetting called the music on Distort "hit-and-miss" and that "the remixes here aren't uniformly as adventurous or ambitious as the band itself, but many do well."[3] AllMusic awarded the album three out of five stars and said "Collide continue to expand their basic industrial sound on Collide, which incorporates techno and goth elements as well as an ethereal sheen reminiscent of the vintage 4AD label sound." Sonic Boom called the collection "one of the best remix albums released in recent memory for not only the depth and extreme diversity of the remixes but for the track selection as well making this record a definite must have."[4] Lollipop Magazine criticized the album for being a poor introduction to the band's art and unnecessary.[5] Ink 19 called the album "original and seductive" and stated "Distort offers a look from the remixer's mind into the eye of talent."[6] Another critic at Ink 19 called it a "consistently excellent" album with "dancefloor prowess coupled with lyrical grace."[7]
