Funny, I watched a video on YouTube over the weekend with this audiophile guy who was raving about this record. I started listening to it, but stopped and now here we are. The circle of life and all that. I should point out the guy in the video was British and as such is required by law to like this kind of music. (That's factually correct, right Alex?) Hell, he maybe is the author of this very list. I'll look into it. Anyway, I didn't find it earth shattering or as good as the Portishead record we just listened to. But I did like moments and overall it has a cool kind of temperature to it. "Pumpkin" was my favorite song. That's something I could listen to multiple times and I even looked up Alison Goldfrapp on Wikipedia because I liked her voice on that track. The opening tune stood out and I did notice that there's some solid cussin' going on here and there, but mostly it was just some good sounding background beats.
