Underworld – Second Toughest In The Infants – Double Vinyl LP

Description

Second Toughest in the Infants came three years after Underworld’s potent breakthrough LP with an opulent triptych called ‘Juanita’, ‘Kiteless’ and ‘To Dream Of Love’ – three tracks which segue seamlessly into each other and form a quite splendid 16-minute Underworld-a-thonthe trio certainly weren’t afraid to indulge when making this next track, ‘Banstyle / Sappys Curry’ seems to confirm this, weighing in at an impressive 15 minutes, though this time nose-diving into some atmospheric, oceanic drum and bass a la LTJ the rest of the album, Underworld alternate between assuaging their raging club beats with warm washes of sound and beatless splashes of colour, and offering more straight-up heavyweight club fodder.
