red snapper is sort of hip-hoppy sample based music.. sort-of. it actually reminds me a lot of amon tobin.

my wife is totally nuts over em..I dont mind em..but get a bit tedious sometimes but it's a nice blend of organic and electronic stuff..all the instruments they use are real..but some riffs etc then sampled and processed etc...
Prince Blimey is my favourite..very jazzy drum and bassy/ trip hop..big ass double bass and live drumming and some mad sax licks..those who are into having a lot of electronic stuff on their albums may not like it..but it's very dark and funky..
Making Bones..in supposedly one of the best electronica albums of the 90's and it is pretty good..more elctronic than Blimey..some muscular dnb almost but not quite drill tracks here..it's their trip hop that bores me a bit..but I would prefer Red Snapper's trip hop to Massive Attacks' any day..
Our Aim is to Satisfy..the title annoys me because it is their most commercial album..almost mainstream electronica goin on here..over produced higly polished and dull..some good tracks here but too many boring ones as well..but then again my wife likes this album a lot so..you never know..the best song here is "Some Kind of Kink"..
Just a hint though..their singles EPs are definetly worth gettin..with remixes by the likes of Plaid, David Holmes and 2 Lone Swordsmen

sorry, before I get slashed and slaughtered by everyone in this thread, let me rephrase what I said:
I think it's shit which doesn't mean that it 'is' shit.
