Advantages: Fifteen good tracks from Moby Disadvantages: Tracks have strong similarities with the last two albums
Hotel is Moby's 6th official studio album and was released at the end of 2005. It had passed me by until I bought the album in France back in April mainly as it was cheap at 8 Euros (about £5) and I hadn't seen it in the shops back home. Another reason for buying this album was that I had been a passenger in an MPV for two days with nothing to listen to but old 1980's tracks, obscure French pop groups or French men discussing the production of wine. ... ...list!
Track 1 - Hotel Intro
Track 2 - Raining Again
Track 3 - Beautiful
Track 4 - Lift Me Up
Track 5 - Where You End
Track 7 - Spiders
Track 9 - Very
Track 12 - Slipping Away
Track 14 - Homeward Angel
Thanks for reading, rating and commenting.

The stand out track (and current ... ...thing you notice about this track (and this album) is an increased use of guitars from previous albums. This is refershing - as it gives Moby a very wide pallette of sounds to play with, and these guitars combined with his wide, lush synth pads make a very warm sound. The chorus of this song is fantastic, a real drivetime song. This is probably one of my favourite Moby songs ever - way ahead of anything on 'Play' - merely because this is such an ...
