Royksopp - The Understanding. (Dance music) album of the year so far? I think so. Anyone else heard it?

wanna cop it- heard it differs wildly from melody- aint a bad thing although was loving the sound on that album- just hoping they ahvent taken the same direction as air/ goldfrapp- ie a move to more electro/synthesized/camp stuff....

Heard a few clips. Sounds harder than previous, but very interesting. I think I'll buy it.

I've had it for a couple of weeks now. I happen to enjoy it lots. It's in my "gym" rotation, a great album to work out to. Catchy phrases, not too cheesy, although there are some moments. All and all a thumb's up rating


Also, new albums to pick up imo...


New White stripes

The Killers-Hot Fuss

Gorillaz- Demon Days.


These are my faves atm.


Lemme know what you guys think.

i love the vocal sound of the album. Apperantly they use a room that is built above a hollow. Sounds cool.

Heard it a few times and I seriously like it now. Best described as melancholic funk.
