    The good news is that practically nothing has changed. That's also the bad news. [#10, p.133]

    The beauty of A Hundred Days Off is that it pumps and churns so suggestively; it somehow evokes the blues of the otherwise successful modern man, who goes out every night and dances alone in his head.
  3. PopMatters

    After a while, the music becomes repetitive and, well, uninteresting.

    The impression is of a group who have got too good at sounding like themselves. [Oct 2002, p.110]

    The songs lack the energy, the feeling, and even the melody of Underworld's classic records.

Ackoli "utrpeli mensi ztratu" po odchodu Darrena No myslim ze Underworld jasne ukazali svetu, ze rozhodne jeste nepatri do staryho zeleza. Ackoli "utrpeli mensi ztratu" po odchodu Darrena Emmersona, je videt ze jejich sverazny styl to nijak zvlast neovlivnilo. Zkratka, Underworld sou, podle me, i nadale premianti v teto oblasti elektronicke hudby. Jen tak dal hosi!! NOTE: Please forgive me that I didn't use English. I couldn't manage it very well :-)… Full Review »
