But if you're like me and are struggling to track down said release for whatever reason (mine being that there seems to be very few chain stores selling CDs left in New Zealand), fear not. You can listen to the whole damn thing here.
NPR have been streaming Undun in its entirety for the last week or so, so it's going to have to do for me for now. Thoughts? I don't have any... I haven't listened yet, aside of first single 'Make My'.
All I can tell you is that it's a 'concept album' which follows the story of Redford Stephens, a fictional drug dealer from Philadelphia. (I can feel people closing down browsers like wild fire as I type this sentence).
You can make your own mind up by heading over to the NPR site where Undun is streaming from go to whoa.
Right, here's my two cents... Undun is a touch boring. There, I said it. A few friends have been complaining that The Roots have gone a bit limp, and I have to agree with them now. I'll keep listening of course, but I'm left feeling flat after the first five spins.
ReplyDeleteI like Undun. Lots of heads calling it the best album of 2011, I have to agree with them.
