This album is very good. I bought it last week and it arrived yesterday- I have been listening to it ever since. At first play I thought it wasn't going to live up to my expectations, but after I sat down to properly listen to it I found that the lyrics were inspirational and very interesting. The music is not as good as the lyrics on this CD, but the lyrics are what it is all about. The tracks are mostly brilliant with a few rerecords which don't sound quite as good as the originals when you first listen to them, but after hearing them a few times, they are still very good. My favourite track would probably be "Waiting For The Beat to Kick in" which reminds me of a electronic rap version of Nick Cave's "More News From Nowhere". The album is very interesting and exciting; I would recommend buying it.

Advantages: The beautifully weird electro provided by Dan Le Sac; Scroobius Pip's flowing poetry Disadvantages: Slightly self-righteous; occasionally the lyrics cannot be heard clearly
