    Very fun to listen to and makes you want to dance in your car.

    Best dance album of the year. You could easily dance yourself to death.

    Where's your head at is a timeless classic. I could listen to that song alone over and over. But the rest of the album is great as well.

    Really, who knew dance music can be amazingly sophisticated? Really, who would know?

    Yes, it's as good as the last one, maybe better.

    The album misses the addictive funk of 'Red Alert', the off beat quirks of 'Yo Yo' and the engulfing production depth of 'Same Old Show'. But it's a powerful package and a proof that the Basement Jaxx have the confidence and vision to pursue their own path.

    Basement Jaxx create real songs around their chugging house beats.
