What do you think? Not as good as Endtroducing... but damn near close.
And then.. I find.. Just the right thing..

i think its as good as entroducing. everyone overrates endtroducing. i dont know why people have a beef with private press. no one talks about preemptive strike either.

blazing arrow seems to get slagged because its too 'RnB' but its brilliant, perfect car music (which is in no way a bad thing!)....why should non mainstream music be catchy and funky?

Im dissapointed that RJD2s - Dead Ringer aint on your list :(
The other albums are dope, DOPE!!!
I actually think the Dead Ringer album is better than DJ Shadows (their albums is pretty alike).
DJ Xammax: U should definityl get RJD2s album "Dead Ringer" if u like Shadow, I highly recommend it. :=)

haven't bought it yet :) RJD2, APC, lauryn hill, faultline, mum.. ain't bought none of those yet. i'm on top of things as you can see from my list but i don't have everything yet.
i've heard 4 or 5 RJD2 songs from the albums, maybe i'm biased cos of the damn promo voices in the mp3's but the music sounds too similar (so far). but i am going to buy it this month or next and give it a fairer listen.

Darn right, Private Press is outstanding. I love the second part to Blood on the Motorway.

ive been addicted to the private press for some weeks now. maybe in the long run, it will not be quite as groundbreaking as endtroducing, but ive found that at the moment, it seems fucking brilliant. there are maybe one or two tracks that i totally dislike, "right thing". but the rest of it is just amazing. 'fixed income' and 'mongrel meets his maker' are my favorites at the moment. there is one element of dj shadow that bugs me a little though. i think he killed the track 'blood on the motorway' by that sample 1/2 through the song. those type of samples just really annoy me. the one on 'six days' actually works though. good stuff.

the sample where he says 'you have not betrayed your ideals, your ideals have betrayed you'. the whole sample is annoying, and it takes away fro m the music. just an opinion though.

i like the sample personally, but to each his own. what i DON'T like about that song is how it stops all of a sudden 1/3 way through. totally kills the mood.

yeah it kinda does. it seems like there is some distortion on the piano when it comes back. on the other hand, i love the way 'mongrell meets his maker' stops. it weird that it is 2 seperate tracks though.

i don't really like how that one stops either, but it does make more sense than it does on blood

I love this album...I wasn't sure whether or not to get it but I'm very happy with it, specifically fixed income, six days, and blood on the motorway.
