I think that the title can be seen as summing up this album aptly - judge this book by its cover...

It has taken much criticism on the chin, mainly from their die-hard fans. I think the mildly analogue-warmed, fuzzy guitars and chilled trip-hop suit a chilled campfire session with your good friends. Just dont forget to bring the biftas, as BoC build a calming fire on the hill, looking back over their decidedly trippy, moody past and looking over the brow towards their next album, which no-one will know what to expect from.

A clever move I think - the right thing for them to have released in 2005...
