Three studio albums: two masterpieces, one of which is this one. Totally re-defined the era when it came out, and is still relevant, even though Portrishead have done that trick again with Third.

I can't even begin to imagine someone not liking this.

I'd say the same about Manic Street Preachers 'Everything Must Go' Smile

This album feels cool. Cool like a fridge. I can put this on a lot.

...and the other one not being Third Razz

But yeah, this is my favorite album from its decade, and it's not going to leave my top 10 anytime soon. No words could make this piece of music justice.

One of the finest albums I've ever heard, and probably the first electronic album I loved- which in itself is truly significant to me. Elegant, beautiful and cool as fuck, and the pinnacle of the genre that's seen many other great releases; it's impossible not to like.

Ad everyone has said and agreed, this album is truly wonderful. I love it so much, so smooth and sexy and dark. And soulful ad hell too!

It really is a unique album in my life. I like it soooo much. Used to be on my chart, it is due for a relisten.
