Yahoo! Music Album Review

Released on 17/05/1999
Label: Fontana

The finest moments on this album come with the doublebass driven drum 'n' bass material - tracks like 'Little Things' and 'EarParcel' represent some of the best music being made within the genre (if not thescene) at the moment.  Elsewhere, Lamb are very good at slightly mournful andbeautiful vocals, 'Softly' being a perfect example. The album does lack areally tight focus but this is a consequence of Lamb's constant quest forthe new, surely something which they should be congratulated for.  The inclusion of 'Fly'lets the innovative thrust of 'Fear Of Fours' down a little, however whenthe album's good it is very good.  Only one question remains, why haven't theyreleased the brilliant 'Little Things' as a single?  JP
