SteveFMay 15, 2008Huge fan but not very pleased with this experiment in shoegazing My Bloody Valentine obsession. The track called Yeah yeah is the only song on here that I would listen to a second time. Quite a disappointment...from a huge fan. Overall i'd say I don't hate the album..I just didn't enjoy it

AlanR.May 25, 2008Anton's creativity has dried up. Drone is the last refuse for the untalented.

CharlieQJul 17, 2008I've been a big fan for years and own everything they've released to date. This is the 1st album by them that I thought was a total waste of time. Disappointingly uninspired.

Hellbent on pushing the envelope, Newcombe shines as a prolific madman once again and as recycled as the ideas are, My Bloody Underground is a fantastic new direction and a forward thinking album that indicates that however combustible, there is a lot more life left in BJM, in any incarnation.

As pastiche, this all makes for a fragmented and cumbersome back-to-back listening experience - utterly dominated by wild mood swings. But with so many independently functioning songs on offer, certain suites of two or three become hands down irresistible.

World-weary and introspective, frequently discordant, this is the sound of a man pondering where it all went wrong.
