Listening again to this again now, mainly thanks to the epics poll, and I'm hearing again how good it is and how much I loved it. Such great tracks all the way through. It reminds me so much of my travelling to meet my gf in Liverpool from Leeds on the trans eur.. erm trans peninne express. Great days.

my cd copy is still way too quiet, gotta crank the stereo up double to hear it. But it still sounds amazing.

The unusual name of the album derives from a comment made by member Rick Smith's six-year-old nephew, Simon Prosser, when asked on his progress at infant school, the level of schooling attended by four- to seven-year-old children in the United Kingdom[citation needed].

yes it may or may not be true but between truth and [citation needed] print the later

The first two tracks on this album = godlike.

I've gotta say, I love how this album is mastered so quietly compared to other electronic records of the time, it means it really blossoms when you crank it up.
― Turrican, Wednesday, 14 October 2015 23:12 (eight years ago) link
this has got to have the best first six minutes of any electronic album ever. even though I've heard it a zillion times I still get drawn in every time.

The best 30 minutes, more like!

Second disc of the deluxe edition (which gets split out over 3 discs + added tracks differently on the superdeluxe) is so quality front-to-back. I love this era of Underworld, when production technique got more sophisticated but they hadn't yet gone technicolor, it was still pretty straightahead, driving, melancholy dance music.
