Editorial Review: Album Description: This re-release was praised by the likes of Rolling Stone, Spin, URB, Blender, and more as "...utterly beyond anything heard to date." Playful, twisted, psychedelic, sampledelic, delirious, and infectious, it's the sound of six men who spent most of adolescence rummaging through bargain bins in Melbourne's record shops, constructing their own post-modern disco-pop amalgam from rubbish 50's rejects and saccharine 60's pap. Also available domestically for the first time on 180 gram double vinyl. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Take a little journey...It's an injustice that 8 years have now past, and the Avalanches have yet to release a follow-up to Since I Left You. As for why? Nobody knows. However, when artists set the bar so high, the pressure to re-create an audible masterpiece can be overwhelming. The mash-up that is Since I Left You is unique, fresh and unattainable. Their debut full-length release is nothing like any of their earlier EPs. People that are familiar with their earlier efforts might not warm-up to Since ...

Great effort. Simply seamless. It takes some real talent to take great musical ...

It is smooth and melodic and makes you feel like you are outside at the beach on a breezy summer's day. I love every song on this album. Rating:  - This was interesting in the '90s when it was called Shibuya-keiIt was interesting to see how Japanese kids interpreted years of American pop culture, made it their own, and then spit it back at us. That was really charming, good music. This record is an over produced, uninteresting sampling wankfest which can only be described as annoying. If you like this, you're not a bad person, you're just not looking hard enough for real music. Rating: - Heard by accidentI heard "Avalanche Rock" by accident, loved it, and had to listen to the whole album. It's funky, groovy and flows together beautifully. Deff recommended.
