I don't like that much at all. The first album had a couple of top tunes on but this STILL sounds like it's repeating their formula of Intro-build up- usual rhythm. However I think they may be kick ass live and I'm hoping to take my eldest to see them in May for his first gig.

I've seen them live twice, it was the height of my drum and bass career.

Why because I like Pendulum? Are they not good enough for you? They're the biggest international drum and bass act that I've seen live excuse me for living on the other side of the world.

Soo Immersion is with us :D What are people's thoughts?

I really like it, there's some variation in there and it's not wall-to-wall DnB. I have played it at every opportunity so far :). Favourite track is Immunize, just can't get enough of it.

I'm getting sick of all Jump Up because of these guys. :(

I really enjoy it. They're seriously plugging the rock / electronic aspects of their music as compared to the drum and bass side, but that's probably the side I prefer anyway. It's not going to be one for the HYC purists, but I'm not really interested in what they have to say.

I think the trick to enjoying the album is not to expect it to be drum and bass. If you appreciate it for what it is, then you'll really enjoy it.

My favourites are Watercolour, Under the Waves, both parts of the Island, Witchcraft and the second part of Encoder. The first half of encoder is very "80s cheese" =/ Special mentions should be made for Immunise, Set Me On Fire and Vulture too :)

New album sucks even more than In Silico which I never thought was possible. They are basically a Pop band now and a boring one at that and what the frig is Steven Wilson from Porcupine Tree doing on one of the tracks :(

I feel like Immersion is missing the drum and bass...
