Underworld. Appreciate!
This is the official Underworld appreciation thread.
The top 2 tracks for me, hands down are:
1. Jumbo
2. Two months off (sin Emerson 
)
-Jumbo-
brother there's a little sale on, uh, vests at, uh, Walmart?
...nine dollar.
- Oh yeah?

i get thoughts about you and the night it wants me
like a little lost child
locked in a safe place

the window
the dark on the otherside of
the locked door

tiny wires in her ears
(slide into the city)

telephone breath between us the whole world is between us
only these wires
dust between the wires
and the green grass
in the distance
i am your tourist

moving in brilliant timing...

-Two Months Off-
There was a little drawing of a heart next to that,
followed by an exclaimation mark.
The back of his was covered in stuff... stuff like:
Brandon is not a very nice guy, but Alex is sooo nice.
And that had the exclaimation thing too.
It was just silly crap that hit the spot. And he let himself be drawn in.
you bring light in...
to a dark place
walking in light
glowing walking in light
gold ring around you
the hues of you
the golden sunlight of you
you bring light in...
cool wind following
following after you
rising for you
your skin beautiful
everything comes natural
fantastic fan
rocking rocking floating

I haven't heard Lovely Broken Thing or Pizza For Eggs. Fill me in.
Who's seen them live? Does the Everything, Everything DVD do justice?
Catchy, catchy, ultimate let loose tunes with Hyde lyrics that defy those of average EDM. So here's to UNDERWORLD. What was, is, would have been and is going to be. What in your opinions is that exactly?
they rock
and i've always been most fond of deep arch, kittens and deep pan
The lyrics are just post-modernist stream of consciousness art. Or I think so anyway... I can never remember where stream of consciousness fits into literature. Underworld are a very arty act, which a lot of people don't catch onto. But they've also produced some killer records, especially early on in their career.

I've seen them live and it was awesome. I haven't watched the entire DVD but it seemed to render pretty good the atmosphere.

As far as literature, I know Burroughs, Ginsberg, Kerouac, etc all wrote by stream of conscious. To be honest, in regards of art/lyric/music, I wouldn't want to think my fave artist had to labour over what was produced. I wouldn't necessarily want editing, deleting, erasing, struggling, fixing, tweaking, yatayata. I think it's much more authentic for that creativity to exist and be put to use without much thought.
just listening to recording of them live makes me shiver uncontrollably 
favorites: rez/cowgirl (the version on everything, everything, oh man 
), dirty epic, moaner

"Born Slippy.NUXX" and "cowgirl" are my Favorites, but I really enjoyed the Underworld "Rez" vs. Bedrock "Heaven Sent" (White Label)
everything, everything!
moaner, rez, cowgirl, two months off, born slippy....ahhhh
I loved Beaucoup Fish. One of the best dance music albums of all time imo. Not a remotely poor track on it. Unfortunately I haven't been too into their stuff released after this with the exception of Two Months Off which was great. They will never get close to an album as good as any of their first three in the future, although I hope I'm wrong. Emerson is a big miss.

Big fan, always have been. Best tracks IMO:-
Banstyle / Sappy's Curry
Pearls Girl
Sola Sistim
Dinosaur Adventure 3D
Second Hand
Headset
Kittens
Best vocal bit has to be from 'Little speaker'
'I feel like I'm still growing sometimes, If I really stand up tall I just go fucking hell, I didn't used to be that tall'
Estella. Can we have babies now?
My fav. Underworld is Jumbo.
Just come over later, I can make it quick.

Dark & Long (Dark Train)
Push Upstairs
The Hump (Wild Beasts)
Jumbo
Cowgirl

Oh yeah!
My fav Underworld tracks are probably the original Born Slippy (not the .NUXX version), Dirty Epic, Oich Oich and M.E.
Also their remix works are brilliant but there's still many to look for.. my fav Underworld remix is of Bj�rk - Human Behaviour. Damn good.
Naturally as an Underworld wh0re i needed to get the Underworld editions of Adidas Superstar 35 sneakers when they became available.

| Originally posted by ThaMaestro i have it. its a live recording, although the music is synchronised from the album, with occasionally a bit crowd noise, therefore, its not 100% live. but its great though. little dislike; you sometimes miss the connection with the performance and the crowd, because of the way the video and music are put together. anyway, i found it worth 100% top notch ... my fav's jumbo 2 months off born slippy dark & long pearls girl |
Rez is a brilliant track.
I also like Jumbo, King of Snake and Pearls Girl.
