Fascinating, absorbing, eerie, majestic.- By: Bones, 10 Jun 2007 The great thing about this album is that most existing fans will love it, yet it offers new directions & angles compared with previous Amon Tobin material. The delicacy & sparsity of some of the samples & instruments reminds me a little of DJ Krush, whilst the incredible percussion & programming is there in alll its usual stunning style & imagination. I put this CD on in my car & it sounded like I had a new sound system, the production is so amazing. Whilst I understand the other reviewers' thoughts on the more experimental tracks, after just a few spins I like everything on the CD. It somehow makes you feel like you're living life in a movie, with the music listening to you as much as the other way round: eerie. Tobin's tunes don't just evoke scenes, eras & atmospheres, they actuallly make you feel as if you've experienced these scenes for real, as if in a previous life. The first two tracks reallly blew me away on first listen, even though I had high expectations; completely fascinating music. I've also got a DVD with it which I look forward to checking out.. Amen, Amon!Not brilliant...- By: Lee Cooper, 19 Apr 2007 I'm a big fan of Tobin's, but this album does nothing for me. I spent most of the time thinking 'nice sounds, but when does the music start?'
A definite try before you buy for fans of his previous works.
*Edit* Perhaps I was a bit harsh. It has grown on me somewhat, but still only 3 stars.
