I found the two below articles yesterday on http://archivedmusicpress.wordpress.com/ via http://www.residentadvisor.net/ about Underworld circa 1996. These were new to me,

1. From Melody Maker, March 9, 1996:
Review: Underworld Live at Lakota, Bristol 1996 (http://archivedmusicpress.wordpress.com/2008/09/02/taylor-parkes-reviews-underworld-live-at-lakota-9th-march-1996/)


2. From same Melody Maker, March 9, 1996 issue:
Review: Underworld - Second Toughest in the Infants (1996) (http://archivedmusicpress.wordpress.com/2008/08/31/simon-price-reviews-underworlds-second-toughest-in-the-infants-9th-march-1996/)

Original scans are posted in each link. A live picture of Karl and a group photo.

Cheers,

Jason

i always hated simon price - his reviews were always more about him than the actual thing he was supposed to be reviewing - he really helped accellerate the decline of mm. review number 2 being a classic example. and reviewer number 1 clearer had a bit too much of a good time to actually recall the gig itself!

interesting lyrical interpretations
"orange urine in your mouth again" wtf?!

also in the gig review: "...visually, naturally, they're dead; it's like watching the radio"
...with a huge picture of a crazed, dancing, sweaty Karl next to it. :rolleyes:

I really don't miss pseud bollocks like this. I blame Paul Morley. Now back to the music!
