So, Always Loved a Film ties Beautiful Burnout for gestation time
Biro > BB (2000-2007) Always Loved a Film (2003-2010) But Bird 1 (assuming it's Strumpet) beats them all: Strumpet > Bird 1 (2000-2010) |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Everyone needs to chill out. Bands almost always have other outside influences contribute to thier albums in the form of mixers and producers. For example, U2 brought in Flood to contribute to an album they did called Achtung Baby. It turned out brilliant. Artists re always collaborating to enhance their sound. Underworld is just spreading this out a bit and being upfront about it.
Sometimes two artists team up that don't seem like they belong together and it works great. Who would have thought the lead singer of Blur and a hip-hop producer would be anything, but they collaborated (with numerous other bands and artists) to form Gorillaz. Johnny Cash worked with rap producer Rick Rubin to make some of the best music of his career. This is a bold move by UW and the results could very well be extraordinary. |

Well said, starfox203 :)
stay positive, people! i'm gonna enjoy the summer listening to scribble & waiting for this new album :) And some live shows please! COME ON!!!! w0000t! |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Can't wait for the new record. I am excited to see what the collaborations turn out like and I am confident that they will have pulled it together into a cohesive album. I think its great they are trying something different. They have a massive back catalogue of tunes - if I want to listen to something like Juanita...I can listen to Juanita. Anyway, I have no doubt the new tracks will sound like the Underworld we know and love!
I, like everyone else would love some studio versions of older versions of the tunes (please let us have a Dark and Long style release!!!) but at least we can get hold of 'most' of those tunes quite easily (assuming you don't want every version of every unreleased tune over the last 10 years!!)...thinking Strumpet and ALF of the Brixton CD's... My gripe is that it is not released for 1/4 of a year!! I am not looking forward to a summer of searching through crap quality vids from the live shows looking for new material....or looking on ebay for overpriced promo's. Its been hard enough keeping up with news of 'new' and 'new versions' of tracks over the last couple of years...soon there will be a full albums worth of material and versions out there. I am seriously considering trying to ignore all talk of new material until we actually get physical releases!! Slightly off topic - but would love to hear more from Darren Price. His tracks that have been played at the live shows recently have been excellent. Hoping he has a few new tracks also :) |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
i truly think this album is not made with the moany old bastards on here in mind, this is an album for the masses - for the modern radio 1 dance audience, for the festival goers, for people who like dance music with lyrics - i.e. not you lot!
thats not a slight against you guys its just the fact that uw are having fun and want everyone to enjoy it - this album is NOT going to be for the 'hardcore' fans, who like b-side / ep tracks like deep arch or mosaic or whatever.... this is not a techno / knob twiddling album like second toughest, or dubno, its not a dingy late night 'walking scruffy streets of london' album, its an up, happy album of good tunes (i expect) we all know uw have a locker full of tunes, some more mellow and instrumental, others poppy and dancey, and tbh, these get the better reactions from the general public, a couple of dozen bedroom dwelling forum snobs don't keep KH & RS in ipads... who is best to polish uws work for the dancefloors than people who play the tracks out week in and week out you might not like PvD but millions of ppl do, and he likes UW, so it makes super great sense, imo give this album a chance before you start criticizing it before even hearing it... scribble is good no? and we've heard a crappy live version of Diamond Jigsaw - its hardly a basis on which to judge an album that no-one has heard yet... come on guys, i expected this type of reaction, but wait until you hear the material before throwing shit towards the fan.... |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
I'm tentatively excited. Sounds like it could be good fun. September feels like such a long way away though, I hope it doesn't leak too early. Maybe this time around I'll not give into temptation and won't listen to it before its actual release, something I was unable to do for AHDO and OWB :o

wait... seriously? I need to listen to it again
so - the "early Biro" is after "Pearl's Girl" right? (I've got it labeled as 'Trousers') and is "the early Strumpet" the improv after NUXX? (edit) oh and about girlfriends hearing "Scribble" -> mine thought it was a ringtone |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
well, i've scribble as a ringtone. :D
september seems so far far away... maybe they want to start a tour during september? because seasons change that month. also, japanese release, so going to get it. |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Shit! Somehow I missed the Brixton release completely. Is there a complete list of the Live Here Now releases somewhere? The Forum search isn't being very helpful. I've got:

Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Yesterday night I looked into Al Tourettes and Appleblim, who are involved with "Hamburg Hotel" and the latter is dubstep (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Asp5r78eD4 / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk454hSy2zY ) and the former is dubstep - but not that typical dubstep. Actually the song I listened to by him ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrbIVhYUP-8 called "Dodgem") is pretty neat. Almost minimal techno. So I think "Hamburg Hotel" is going to be fucking badass and totally Underworld-sounding - but in a different light.
I will totally get a pre-order of Barking because I have always had full confidence that I will love ANYTHING Underworld creates. So I am not worried at all. |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Isn't "Strumpet" just a remake of "Confusion the Waitress"? Or am I just having an aneurysm???

Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Thanks, all. Oof, it is going to cost me a fortune to dig up these missing releases, but I can't wait to listen to them.

Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Great news!
Also, after seeing "Moon In Water" on the tracklisting, I looked it up on my recording of the December radio show (which I listened to in its entirety when it aired live - ooh, I'm finally a part of Underworld history!) and I can really see how great a job High Contrast could do with this track if he gets it right. The entire song almost sounds like a lull before a drum'n'bass explosion. Also also, there's a track from that radio show entitled "Barking". In case you don't feel like looking it up, I doubt it'll be on the album. It's pretty experimental, starting off with a spoken word and then just making some eerie whooshing noises. Plus it's only about a minute long. Also also also, glad to see some of my wish-list tracks on there! I'm pretty safe in my knowledge that Mark & D. will treat ALAF and Between Stars with the greatest of care, and eager to hear (unlike some of you) what PvD+UW sounds like. Considering how poppy Diamond Jigsaw is, I think they picked the right track for him! |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Apologies for keeping this off-topic going but has anyone else experienced problems with downloading the Underworld Brixton shows from the Live Here Now site? I bought both available releases but the downloads appear to have frozen. Trying to redownload them doesn't work, LHN just tells me "Sorry! You Can't Download the Music".

Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
This is the shortest UW album title ever.
(now, over-interpret away). Anyway, let's wait until we heard it. If UW feel like doing a dancefloor album with the help of other artist, fine. They don't need to prove anything, anymore. And they are still open to new ways of making their music. And also, remember how they once elaborated about other people carrying on "Underworld". |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Paul Van Dyk and Appleblim on the same album - Barking, indeed! :)
Can't wait! |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
You realize that on the previously mentioned December webcast there's a song called: "Barking"
Depeche Mode – “Barrel of a gun” www.depechemode.com Underworld – “Are you Rockstar?” www.underworldlive.com Spoken word – “School days” Underworld – “Longing for what/the surrealist object” www.underworldlive.com Underworld – “Barking” www.underworldlive.com Charles Bukowski – “The state of world affairs” www.bukowski.net/poems |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
It just occured to me that I'm not as excited as I want to be over this album. It happened while listening to You Do Scribble during a late-night work session. That track has all the signature UW that I think in time, I'll miss when listening to Scribble. Scribble is a good track, but its hard to not hear how polished it is.
Obviously I haven't heard the album yet, but that doesn't change that I'm not as excited for this as I thought I would be. I wanna be really excited! Oh, and the fact that PvD, while technically proficient, is total cheese doesn't help me one bit. Reading that the tracks were sent to these producers makes me think that they'll just stick their sounds into the track because well, they want to. |
Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Whose got the 5 minutes rough cut of Moon In Water? This will be interesting in terms of development, no idea what stage this was in when it was broadcast.

Re: New Underworld album - Barking (Sept. 13, Sept 2 Japan)
Everyone is making waaaayyyy too big a deal about "guest producers." Most bands work with a producer on a specific album. I mean what's the differenceif Steve Hall produced the album? Does that mean it's not an Underworld album? Just because Rick has self-produced the last few albums... The release does not say the songs are co-written. Unlike Downpipe which has artist listed as "underworld vs..."
Also find it funny to see the reviews of Scribble on iTunes. I wonder how much the general public (i.e. Non-dirts) will credit the guest producers for the final songs. While the dirts have the knowledge of having heard the progression of the songs for a while. Oh by the way, I heard the extra track on the Japanese version is Five Points with oakenfold as the guest producer. |
