  • Summary: The sixth studio album for the British electronic trio was produced by Tic-Toc.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 0 out of 5
  2. Negative: 0 out of 5
  1. They're not quite back to those heady 'Connected' days, but the Stereos still have a mesmeric knack of making music bounce like a rubber ball.
  2. As their sound comes into focus again, and their inflence is found to be more powerful than we first thought, there are mixed feelings on this latest Stereo MCs offering.
  3. Double Bubble is neither deep or dense enough for electronic connoisseurs, nor is it brash enough to spawn another "Connected" with kids sprung off of Justice or Hot Chip.
  4. Uncut

    Occasionally they break from formula, but the tired beats and repetitive rhymes ensure Double Bubble would have even a Full Moon Party shaking their heads. [Sep 2008, p.104]
  5. Those old enough to remember "Connected" as something more than a Carphone Warehouse jingle might feel a tremor of nostalgic affection, but little else.
