Probably the best tune of 1992. Manic Stampede is an A-side tune too, something magical about the nutty, squirly synths (words often fail me :D), but there's something slightly lacking. It might be the b-line, which seems perhaps too hard and repetetive, i can't quite figure it out. Perhaps it's just being dwarfed by the flip. Even so, still a fantastic tune.

But the A-side..Jesus Christ.. it's goosepimple time! The continuity of this track is flawless! Utterley rude, right from the very start to the very end and unlike most heavy , full on tunes, theres no headache second time around - you can listen to it over and over again (I remember one party where it got 6 or 7 rewinds, with ppl screaming "AGAIN, AGAIN!" ).

Not one single ounce short of LEGENDARY


Rated 5/5

I can't believe no-one has written a review for this yet. "This Sound Is For The Underground" is probably the single greatest hardcore tune ever. I wish I had something clever to say about this release, except that from the distinctive bassline to the hands in the air strings, it's one of those tunes that keeps on pumping all the way to the label. On the flipside is the awesome "Manic Stampede" with the 'She keeps on running' sample, another tune that never tires, although for my money the remix of this particular track is far superior.
