Toppermost: Underworld (10 favourite tracks curated by me)
 
Hey all,

On a music blog, Toppermost, I recently did a write-up containing 10 of my favourite Underworld songs. It was unbelievably difficult to do, given their brilliant, vast, and diverse discography, but I'm very proud of this piece.

If you want a lengthy and eloquent read about some of the band's greatest tunes, check out the article. I tried to arrange the song selection in a way that's cohesive?a unique 'best of' journey through the many years of Underworld. Cheers!

  8. Border Country
  9. Banstyle / Sappy's Curry
  10. You Do Scribble

Hi, thank you for the link/text. To say they "were even part of the soundtrack for the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony" is quite an understatement, as they were the music directors of this event! They were asked by Danny Boyle and accepted the honour.

Ohh, I was so invested in their other achievements that I completely missed that detail, ahah! Shows how prolific they are, even with such an oversight. :)

The beauty of subjectivity.. my actual top 10 would probably include out-there choices like Push Downstairs and D'Arbly St. I love how diverse this band's catalogue is.

I find myself listening to Tree and Two Chairs a lot more than I’d thought. It’s all-purpose pleasant, everyday, seamless.
This is certainly a hell of a list of some kind. Respect, though, and lovely to see another Banstyle Believer
