I've been listening to the EP again and again... Musically, very enjoyable. Lyrically, cringes and worse. I feel like if Karl had done the same vocals, the familiarity would partially forgive the literal words. But that wouldn't be what we'd expect from Underworld. We expect excellence and inspiration!

So, I treat the EP as some new music, great backing vocals by Esme Smith, and an indication that Underworld continue to challenge themselves and seek new collaborations.

Still, looking forward to a new record ( they claimed to be writing on the road) with Karl's distinct perspective.

Tldr: EP has great grooves, Iggy's lyrics stink. Miss Karl.
