amg expert review: having ingested the second summer of love's acid
house good-vibery, dirty beatniks saw the inherent similarity to
early-'80s underground breaks and decided to make the two walk down
the aisle ù even if it took a shotgun at their backs to do it. one
one seven in the shade is a grubby, clattery, and wholly bestial
record. but luckily, it hasn't yet come to terms with its
influences. like better big beat, "don't stop" eschews wonky
samples in favor of scorching old-skool instrumental hip-hop,
giving the likes of the chemical brothers much fuel for their live
sets, while "straight & narrow" is all uncorked breakbeats trying
to reconstruct those clammy, clenched all-nighters. there is a
sense of the album losing steam at mid-point, but only a belle &
sebastian fan would be intractable enough to not realize how tricky
it is for this stuff to work
