I agree.  I haven't heard the whole album, I heard some excerpts on the BBC
listening room on the internet, I don't think its that bad.  Maybe if all
of us listen to it more, it may grow on us.  I am a little disappointed
with the Mother track though, but "Temper temper" (I heard it from a
friend) is fine.

"Timeless" was the first time I heard drum & bass and I think it is a
landmark album.  His new album may be shit but we cannot deny the impact of
this man.  "Metalheadz Platinum Breaks" is still for me, one of the best
drum & bass compilations ever released.  The global popularity of drum &
bass has a lot to do with Goldie.
