Strawberry Hotel - Dirty reviews

[potatobroth]

This is the first time I've ever written this about Underworld... but the album is whatever-the-opposite-of-growing-on-me is. Fading on me? There are still a few solid tracks on here, but the rest I just don't seem to care about. My gut reaction was 'its okay'. Then some of the middling tracks grew on me, but now I'm back to "its okay." Which is fine.

Black Poppies, Denver Luna (!!), Hilo Sky, Gene Pool, and probably Lewis in Pomona. Techno Shinkasen has a chance to grow on me still. But the rest is just kinda there.

I guess its like I felt with Drift, but that was because of the sheer number of tracks. There are dozens on the full Drift album that I won't revisit. But I do play the Sampler start to finish (usually skipping Brilliant Yes because mood killer.) I just can't see myself playing this start to finish. Once King of Haarlem starts its basically over for me except for Gene Pool.
