The Bay Area's Josh Davis (aka DJ Shadow) finally returns with a proper full-length follow-up to 1996's groudbreaking 'Endtroducing,' which achieved near-legendary status for its imaginative use of samples (a style that would later be adopted by acts such as The Avalanches).

just get it.

Davis makes pretty much everything on the radio sound idiotic. It's nice to here a real artist evolving and growing instead of pumping out the same old thing. The rest of the music industry would do well to embrace musicians whos music can be called art, istead of going for the quick buck song of the week that no will remember or care about three years from now. Shadow stands head and shoulders above the largly unlistenable tripe that MTV proports as Hip-Hop. Music like this develops loyal fallowings that last years beyond the top forty. You won't be dissapointed.

Please don't compare this to "Entroducing". That's just not being fair and you will enjoy this record.
Eric G. gave it a 9:
This is good stuff. This is truly shadow's style. Im goin to be listenin to this on my ipod 4 awhile. Best thing since Entroducing.
JayMal gave it an 8:
Not as great as Entroducing...., But still a solid album all around.
Mac M gave it a 9:
Rivetting from start to finish. Perhaps not Q-U-I-T-E as multi-dimensional as Endtroducing but indespensable all the same.
Noble L. gave it a 9:
Just what I expected from Shadow ... the unexpected - 'You can't go home again' will be on my playlist for years to come.
