a great many of my friends (here in finland, that is) dislike underworld. i actually found electronic music when i heard dubnobasswithmyheadman (ok saw 1 was involved too), and i still love underworlds music. so i would like to ask you, whats so bad in underworld's music?

i havnt heard enough of it to make a judgement
but id say that most peoples main problem with them is thier mainstream appeal... and thier repetitiveness
but again, i could be wrong

The new stuff is totally ass-licking pop. They sold out.
I like the old stuff like Rez, Spikee and King of snake. The new single is like 'oh please take us to ibiza' and lacking the raw Underworld charm.

I only enjoy two tracks by Underworld; Moaner and Born Slippy, but they are more suited for the dancefloor. I bought their live DVD some months ago, pretty good stuff for partying purposes when your guests are non-electronica-fans.

I don't like the live CD at all. The older Underworld concerts were way better. I HATE King Of Snake but the new album is fantastic. Sola Sistim is a fabulous track, Mo Move is great. The whole CD has got a really chilled vibe. I'm definitely getting it.
But nothing can beat Second Toughest In The Infants. That is THE Underworld album.
Listen to Banstyle/Sappy's Curry and tell me you don't like it, go on!

rez and second toughest in the infants are really good, but i can't listen to born slippy anymore either, just not brave enough :)
seeing them live was an experience, they just make everything so damn cool when you are there
