Rated 4/10

umas parecem música genérica de menu de um jogo ruim, outras são até interessantes.
enfim, nada demais. um pouco longo e eh isso

Rated 2/10

The Shamen will always hold a special place in my heart.

As a twelve year old watching the Daily Mail class getting foamed up over Ebeneezer Goode was Very Funny™

Alas there's not enough chemicals in the world to get me to enjoy this album : (

Rated 2/10

Halfway through the first song, yeah this is gonna be a struggle today. This is 100% not an album that everyone needs to hear. And it's hilarious to me that the same people will shit on this album and praise Daft Punk to no end. 1/5

Rated 2/10

Other than Move Any Mountain, which wasn’t even on the original release, this album is everything I hated about 90s dance music. Call me a fool but i dont see the appeal of music that sounds like there’s a car alarm permanently going off in the background.
At best this is music to lose yourself to whilst high in a club, but not to listen to otherwise.

Rated 4/10

Move Any Mountain makes me think of Top Of The Pops. This came out when I was 10 years old and when TOTPs was becoming a weekly must see, and where it stayed until my late teens. The 1990s TOTPs had such a massive impact on my musical taste, introducing me to a lot of bands that stayed with me my whole life (Green Day playing Welcome To Paradise in 1994 changed everything).

The Shamen I know solely through this opening track and Ebenezer Goode (sadly not on this album), so most of this is new to me. And my word it sounds "of it's time" - it's so astonishingly early 90s. Sort of slower than I expected, and not particularly exciting. None of the new tracks really stood out, though I did sort of like Evil Is Even.

It's not for me.

2/5

Rated 6/10

A refreshingly different entry on the list. It sounds pretty dated, but the jams are still groovy and head-boppable as ever. I wish they did more of the trippy shit they pull on 666 Edit!

Standouts: Move Any Mountain • Possible Worlds • Omega Amigo • Lightspan • Hear Me • 666 Edit

Rated 4/10

Favorite track(s): Possible Worlds

Rated 4/10

2.5 maybe? Liked it more than I expected but it's definitely of an era

Rated 2/10

I've never heard of this artist.

Almost immediately, I felt pretty confident that this was not going to be an enjoyable listen. This style of electronic music just doesn't appeal to me. I find it boring.

And this specific album was like listening to over an hour of static. There's just nothing interesting in here for me.

Rated 2/10

So much effort to listen to this album. Which made it even more annoying that it’s just a bit rubbish.

Rated 2/10

What in the BigFishLittleFishCardboardBox-hell is this album doing on this list.

Get in the bin.

Rated 6/10

this was ok but i would not revisit

Rated 4/10

Not a terrible EDM album. Not horribly annoying, but not that fun to listen to. 2/5

Rated 4/10

Перші пару пісень є приємна ностальгія за 90ми, але далі це стає максимально нецікаво.

Rated 6/10

3.5 happy to hear some forgotten tracks after all these years.

Rated 4/10

Just like every other late 80s early 90s dance club groups only not as good as the stand outs like Black Box, CeCe Peniston, Robin S., Everything but the girl, Crystal Waters, La Bouche.... you get the idea.

Rated 6/10

This sounds like a crappy version of whatever Shaun and Ed From Shaun of the Dead were spinning at 4 AM.

That being said I vote this is the first record we throw at the zombies during our inevitable future war with them.

Rated 6/10

2.5. Totally listenable but I don't ever need to listen to it again.

Rated 6/10

I liked some of it. Some of it was a bit to much of an 80's vibe. It could also have been quite a bit shorter.

Rated 4/10

I understand the inclusion of this album on the list. This style of dance music definitely had its cultural moment in the 90s. I was too young to be going to clubs or raves at the time so for me I associate this with the Mortal Combat movie soundtrack. Did I need a whole album of the Mortal Combat theme song? Absolutely not. The majority of this is a 10 second drum sample played ad nauseum for 3-5 minutes. I think EDM advanced a lot over the years where artists started making it more dynamic, but this early stuff is very flat. There were a few songs that broke the mold though, Evil is Even was cool and different. 666 Edit was the peak of this album, it had different parts, and I loved where they cut the music in and out so it seemed like it was skipping but stayed on time, that was cool too.
