i just listened to this a few days ago, definitely a keeper. it's lacking somewhat in standout tracks but otherwise a very consistent and entertaining album.
good to see
In Prism getting some love here, same with
Wavering Radiant. here's a late 2008 release that deserves a bit more attention:
A Certain Ratio, natural successor to Gang of Four, struggled to sculpt their epoch while they were still culturally relevant. they shed the abhorrent production to return with (what i consider) their strongest release, a fluid, jazzy interpretation of their graceful funk-punk.
