Industry Reviews
5 out of 5 - ...a delectable concoction of late-night grooves and deft lyricism....This is hip hop as it used to be: witty, inventive and damn funky...
Mixmag (05/01/1999)
4 (out of 5) - ...By bridging sample-happy experimentalism with real hip-hop teeth, [Herbaliser] have made hip hop's OK COMPUTER.
Alternative Press (08/01/1999)
...they work the styli like Coltrane worked the reeds....These Londoner's long-awaited third joint possesses more of a street mentality than their previous works, incorporating old-school samples, rugged grooves, and guest MCs into a smooth, cinematic structure...
CMJ (05/03/1999)
4 stars (out of 5) - ...prepare to have your expectations smashed....confident focused blend of jazz, Seventies funk and beats, [it] is the sound of Herbaliser coming into its own....a record that's both charming and addictive...
