Re: Might as Well.... OWB Poll
Well, I just got mine today, and after a only few listens it was still difficult to decide on a top song. However, I'd have to go with "Best Mangu Ever". It's one of those chilled out, "big sounding" (reverb is put to good use), heavily sample laden tracks that completes an Underworld album (in the same vein as Banstyle/Sappys Curry, Push Downstairs, Sola Sistim). IMHO, anyway!

Nice bass line too!

Re: Might as Well.... OWB Poll
Interesting that Boy Boy Boy is rumoured to be the next single, yet it's nobody here's favourite, and Beautiful Burnout is winning over Crocodile despite Crocodile being the single.

This harks back to my ancient musings on the dirtylist about UW not knowing (or not caring, or even actively avoiding it) when they have a big hit on their hands, considering they put .nuxx, rez and darktrain out as just b-sides.

Re: Might as Well.... OWB Poll
Lx, I think this happens because they've chosen to basically remove themselves from 'the scene', and without much of that context there's no telling what will be a 'hit'.

It's a little tragic in a way, but we wouldn't get those fascinating little bits like Cuddle Bunny if they did it any other way.

with that said I'm sure there are plenty of people outside of this lovely community who think Crocodile is brilliant and everything else falls flat.

after all music is highly subjective

what about 'bruce lee'?
i didn't really care for that track either, but some of
the mixes were decent..

actually i prefer that over 'ring road' and 'boy boy boy'..

Re: Might as Well.... OWB Poll
ignoring that fact that the poll has been fixed (to heal has 6 votes not 77!) - boy boy boy, the supposed next single has no votes whatsoever....

this does not particularly bode well...

anyway thought i'd bump this thread as most people will be getting the album today, and can offer their opinons via a vote again...

Nitpicking: HTM is still +1 over the real number of votes.
