Six Australian guys construct, entirely from samples,
an elaborate, digivolving extended dance mix that somehow makes 70's
and 80's disco cheese sound like the most relevant music on Earth

Rating: 9.5!!
In releasing Since I Left You, the Avalanches have essentially
brought hundreds of slabs of inanimate vinyl to life.
Though it was no doubt meticulously constructed, this is an album brimming
with spontaneity, joy, sadness, humor, reflection, and general human-ness.
With its high fun factor and subtle traces of deeper emotion,
Since I Left You is the perfect record for the party,
and for the period of regret and recovery after the party.

The story is a sad one, told many times.
The story of my life in trying times.
Just add water, stir in lime.
How the west was won and where it got us.
