Having heard about Darren Emerson's departure from the group, I was afraid that they were going to go all arty/wanky.
After numerous listens, I think its a solid record. As with most Underworld albums, there a couple of throwaway tracks but there
is plenty of great dance oriented tracks on this one to hold it together. Track 8 is excellent. As for those
who were saying that they were hopping on some new-fangled trends, I would have to totally disagree.
I hear more of a straight up techno vibe on this on, more so than I heard on the last two.
