Damn. what a good listen. A perfect pairing of Damon Albarn w/ Danger Mouse. Lots of good jams...intelligent mashups, a good flowing lyrics.
Gone are the hokeyer Dan the Automator jams (which I still dug...the first album is a classic) and replaced with more slow-paced, groove intense tracks.
Great stuff. Better than the last record. |

"All Alone", "Kids with Guns" and "DARE" are simply stunning...as is the mentionned "Feel Good, Inc", and "White Light".
I can't wait to drive home...whatta soundtrack! I need to give "Guero" a rest anyway (that album really grew on me, unexpectedly) |

A few of my favorite tunes are, "El Manana", "November Has Come", "All Alone".
Well worth picking up! |

'Novermber has come' is a great track, MF Doom is, as always, stunning. All the other numbers are equally as good, I agree that Danger Mouse is a much better choice this time around. I liked the first record, but this one feels much more cohesive and groovier.

I LOVE Feel Good Inc., I don't know what it is but it's just so awsome.
I got the album and it isn't nearly as quality as Feel Good Inc. But the bass is nice and deep, and they mix acoustic guitar with techno beats and orchestra and organic vocals so well. I like these songs: last living souls, o green world, dirty harry, el maana.

(not saying you didn't, just curious) I friggin love Dennis Hopper's reading of the "happy people" story, followed by the poignant quasi-Spiritualized "Don't get lost in Heaven"...just awesome.
I think DARE is one of the best songs on that disc, as well as Feel Good. Alone is pretty cool too, and features Martina Topley-Bird too.... grooooowll!
I can't stop listenning to it...so good. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2003 Location: Big Sound Central | | | I picked up the offical release today, there are some things that are better than the leaked copy, and somethings that they changed that I didn't like.
"DARE" is one hundred times better, Shaun Ryder's vocals are mixed much better and the generally feel of the track is less bland and more razzle-dazzle.
The biggest disappointing change was on "November has come". On the part where Doom goes "Bye, can you dig it like a spigot/ My guess is yes you can, like can I kick it/wicket/". On the line "like can I kick it" there was this great little 2 second drum break down that was pure James Brown/Old school b-boy style hip-hop and it, in my opinion, made the song. They've made a few things better on this track; clearer bass and cleaned up the beat. But that two second drum break were so good I can't believe they took it out! If they do a remix/outtakes album of this (which they probably will) and this track is on it, I will be all over it, until then, I'm going to keep that leaked track.
Haven't really combed through the whole album that much, just checked out those two tracks in earnest. Final judgement pending.
