Sure it's a great album and they certainly put their stamp on it, but it's not innovative at all. What original ideas do you see in it?


Did they rip off Warp Records? .. yes

They also ended up making an album that is better than 99% of the material on that label as well.

Just out of interest how many other bands were mixing rock with IDM , free jazz & piano ballads in 2000/2001?
