Reviews
Ranked #19 on Spin's List of "Top 20 Albums of '98.", Included in Mixmag's "Ten Best Albums of 98" - "Beats by DJ Shadow. Star turns by Richard Ashcroft and Thom Yorke. Hype by James Lavelle...", "...UNKLE use a mixture of samples and real musicians to build their fuzzy analog tableaux, giving this ad hoc collective considerable style-flexing muscle...", "...this slow-cooking beat-noir masterpiece proved to be both cinematic in its scope and surreal in its detail, held together by a confident, futuristic aesthetic...", 3.5 Stars (out of 5) - "...an accessible yet edgy blend of movie-soundtrack-style ambience, hip-hop experimentation, rock & roll reverb, maniacal drum breaks and turntable-synthesizer spasms....a complelling work in progress."
