Always Loved a Film (on pete tong)

[Dunwho]

Sounds like ALAF

If you like ALAF then id say this is gold dust....

If you dont like ALAF then its the same ol same ol...

Ill probably skip this track more than scribble when i get the album - saying a lot...


... i just want to hear something intelligent - still trying to work out how it took this long to come up with songs that sound so run of the mill and simple

[holden]

Thanks for the rips, guys!

Well, that sounds massive, even on my little speakers!

Agree that it's much more developed and polished than the ALAF/Silver Boots versions we've heard for so many years. But like YDS--> Scribble, there are the familiar elements, and so much more!

Kind of feel like compiling the various versions of the track and trying to spot what made it through, what went bye. Recall on the UWLive audio page that this was one of the tracks that just never felt finished for the boys. Maybe that's one of the utilities of so many collaborations - let someone else take a stab at it, what'd they'd like to hear in the UW vein.

As for the singing, hmmm, not so sure. Karl's voice is great, i just suppose i prefer the stream-of-consciousness/spoken style a little more. This brings back a bit of UW mki. But the 80's are cool again, i suppose!

This is leagues better than Scribble and absolutely, without a doubt, shattering any misconceptions I had about a co-produced album of this kind. I don't want to come off as gushing because its a new track and all, but gush gush gush.

I strayed off the UW path for like a few weeks. This has me right back on it. Thanks boys!

I was just thinking the same thing. UW mk1 are back. Some of that is a good thing, some bad. You have lyrics not stream-of-consciousness, and you have verse chorus verse, and you have guitar. But, to stop it from going all the way Mk1 you have the collaborations which add a twist of the new.

It's like listening to a child grow up. It only took it 7 years.
I like it.
The lyrics are different from the Brixton Academy gig, not sure which lyrics I like more. But i really like the accoustic guitar in the background. Nice touch.

Underworld: Evolution

what alaf
you was done up there mate

[the-star-samurai]

After listening to this version more than 10 times, I am digging it more. I think hearing a not-radio-rip would warm me up even more - but I'll be patient.

I agree there is an 80's vibe but it's totally welcome. This is absoultely fantastic. The break is amazing. This album may be the best thing they've ever done.

[joethelion]

It feels like a combination of the BF era music with Mk1 type vocals
not a bad thing

[TheBang]

I really like the breakdown in the new version.

The only thing that I feel that's missing is the bassline. Whether it was the original throbbing bassline or Silver Boots bassline, it was always a prominent feature of the song, and now it seems to be just buried and generic.
