Hadn't listened to this in over a decade until recently. Whilst it sounds a little dated, it's still a great listen. Peter Steele's voice is monstrous.

This was one of my favorite albums of the 90's. This is rap at its realest.
Just started listening to it in its entirety recently

I'm listening to the last great Pink Floyd album for the first time in years.

Spooky - Little Bullet (Part One) off of Northern Exposure 2 was one of my favorite tracks of the 90s. Loved Sasha and Diggers when they still did trance.

Ah yeah love it too. Northern Exposure 2 is maybe even a bit more nostalgic for me looking back. I kept up with Sasha and Digweed with the early Global Underground releases and then completely lost interest in that entire scene, only recently going back to some of those albums.

My favourite of theirs. When I listen to it, I usually listen to it whole.
Same. I very rarely listen to songs in isolation when I'm able to just set aside an hour & just enjoy an album from start to end.

No. Is it when you click a link or just when you access the whole page?

Listened to Endtroducing..... today for the first time in yonks. It's more for nostalgia than anything really, I'm not sure it's aged particularly well. Certainly has its moments but found it a bit of a slog. Still though...

Things Fall Apart is a great album. Loved Phrenology too come to think of it.

It's almost perfect. If I have one minor quibble with it it's that Black Thought, great rapper though he is, isn't quite ambitious enough lyrically. Goes for all the Roots early stuff really. Which is why it was so refreshing listening to Phrenology when it came out and hearing a track like Water.

Oh, every Dice Raw verse is kicking.

First listened to American Football's first LP back in 2016 and thought it was okay. Listened to it again the following year and it's not stopped rotating since.

Rediscovered Leftfields Leftism yesterday. A corker of an alb7m.
Might have to give that a listen later, some bangers on it and it’s been a long time.

Shame Cube smashed it to bits in the space of one track five months later.

Randomly remembered this band existed having not listened to them in about a decade. A fine album that's very much of its time.

Agreed, still sounds great. I saw them do the whole album live at the Bluedot festival in either 2017 or 2018 and it was wicked. Lots of middle aged ex ravers reeling back the years and doing their thing.

Put the Lust for Life album on last Saturday for maybe the first time in 15 - 20 years and it’s such a great way to spend time, what an album!

I have been listening a lot to Arcade Fire's "Funeral", Sufjan Stevens' "Michigan" and "Illinois," some early Beirut and finally "Diamond Mine" by King Creosote and John Hopkins.

A little bit of nostalgia for bands/artists I haven't listened to in a while
