Underworld – Second Toughest In The Infants

Just played through mine for the first time since buying (I know, it's been too long). Lovely copy, I was horrified when I saw what looked like two scratches on side D, but it's actually just quite a dirty record, fine after a clean. Sounds great overall though, well done Miles Showell as always!

Regarding 'Style', surely Blueski is 'experimental'.... while Sappy's Curry and Stagger could be art rock?

Brilliant LP, just don't try to take the bastard sticker off

I was lucky. Got the heavy vinyls perfectly pressed. Clear and fresh sound. My favourite tracks (Rowla, Air Towel ++) sound better than ever!! Nice paper sleeve/bag, too.

Received and will return 2 copies, both had the same issue: loud pops and skips on D1, that last for half the track. Other than that mix and sound is good, but Air Towel is messed up. Poor quality control.

As others have said, this sound on this is PHENOMENAL but the sleeves are atrocious and got hairlines on the records even just removing them once to put them in better sleeves. I literally cringed at what sounded like sandpaper as they slid out. They were also filthy and required a wash, and the spindle hole on the second disc is too small and had to be shaved down. A shame that these errors mar an otherwise incredible release.

Juanita/Kiteless/To Dream of Love has to be one of the most euphoric pieces of dance music ever created.

Beginning of the end imho - dubnobass was their pinnacle - with the remixes et al... this has way less staying power. On the downward slide.

Cover Art: 10/10
Sound Quality: 9/10 or 10/10 (Last track "Stagger" has a locked groove until the end, i don't know why, i don't know it anyone has the same problem)
Packaging: 10/10

Total: 10/10. Reccomended Masterpiece.

sounds good! agreed to the suggestion to use generic sleeves instead of the glossy inserts.
