mikesJul 20, 2009A great album is one that we want to completely immerse ourselves in, letting the whole experience wash over us without having to skip tracks, often referred to as fillers or ballads. Wait For Me is a great album. Hauntingly beautiful, not haunted and eerie, but spiritual and uplifting, it

BrRJul 11, 2009I'd give this a 6, but i'm sure it will grow on me. A few listens in, "Wait For Me" is pleasant and well produced, but other than "Shotin the Back of the Head", having been played numerous times in anticipation of the album release, i can't recall a single track. So, it's diverting and downbeat, but nothing special.

SamR.Jul 9, 2009Eh, Whatever. The only good track here is "Shot in the Back of the Head," which isn't even that great.

Moby's most unified and understated album, and all the better for it, Wait for Me is a morose set of elegantly bleary material, quite a shift from the hedonistic club tracks of "Last Night."
-
For anyone wanting to hear a genuine progression from the blueprint laid out by "Play" and to enjoy the calmer, more ethereal and undeniably sadder side of Moby's music, Wait For Me is worthy of further investigation.
-
Yes, he's still plugging away, swapping the frenetic disco of 2008's "Last Night" for a more cultured sound.
