A dusty, dub-heavy collision of hip-hop beats and melancholic pop. It sounds like a cartoon band playing in a beautiful, decaying city at 2am.
March 24, 2001 · Parlophone
A dusty, tape-saturated collision of dub, hip-hop, and indie rock emerges from a fictional cartoon collective, establishing a gritty blueprint for genre-fluid pop. Co-produced by Dan the Automator, the record thrives on a haunted London basement aesthetic, where skeletal drum machines and heavy basslines meet a weary, deadpan vocal delivery. The result is an atmospheric, urban-night landscape that feels both futuristic and beautifully falling apart at the seams.
