everything about it is brilliant August 27, 2008 I really can't fault this album in any way. Who would have thought UNKLE could release something to better War Stories, but I think this has.
The clear stand-out track on here is 'Heaven', I challenge you to listen to it and not be in awe at it's sheer magnificence. Other tracks of note include the beautiful but far too short 'Synthetic Water', the orchestral 'Trouble in Paradise' which was recently featured in an advert, and the tracks 'Against The Grain' and 'Nocturnal' which are both stellar UNKLE works

This sounds good.... Although I like the electro UNKLE, this is a good departure. Some cracking instrumentals for the car here. It appears the majority of the music was originally wrote for the Film/documentary 'Odyssey in Rome'. The main title song appears 'Heaven' feat: Gavin Clark again is without doubt classic. I can see this being a release but who knows. Some of the guitar melodies are also reminiscent of the eighties classic albums.... U2's Rattle & hum and the Cure. You can agree or disagree on that one!
Anyway this album is a good hence the 4 stars - Some hardcore electro next time James..... coming to a channel 4 ident near you!
What happened to the once magnificent UNKLE? July 7, 2008 4 out of 13 found this review helpful
This album is just terrible, its just noise and moaning. I was a die-hard UNKLE fan but i'm not a loving of his new sound and the direction Lavelle's music is heading. Loved edit music for a film, never never land, psyence fiction and war stories but this is a move to much in the wrong direction.
unkle keep moving July 1, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Unkle follow the amazing War Stories with their latest collection 'End Titles' and it is just as good as its predecessor, in fact its probably a more coherent 'album' (despite what Lavelle says), The guest vocals of Gavin Clark on 5 tracks give the whole CD its core with 'Against the Grain' particularly beautiful. Having heard some of these tracks on earlier releases (tracks 5, 6, 7 & 8 but 8 has new vocals from Josh Homme) does not detract from this or any other Unkle release for me. They are reference points for the new material and it all very quickly sweeps the listener along and delivers everything the fan has come to expect from Lavelle & co. The glam riffs and breathy vocals are retained with Ghosts (James singing again I think) reminding me of Love & Rockets stuff (any one remember them?)and this certainly does sound like War Stories but its a danger to compare either too closely for fear of belittling either. This could be part 2 but it is so much more than that. James is the master at getting the best out of his collaborators then immediately moving on to the next project and this is the latest output for followers of the work in progress that is Unkle. Black Mountain are back with 'Clouds' & this is as strong as anything on the brilliant CD 'In the Future', McBean & Unkle could make a whole album together, but I find that applies to all of Unkles best work with other artists, you want a whole LP! That is delivered brilliantly here in part with the Clayhill tracks. Loads of 'real' songs on here, lots of atmospheric film like interludes, great guest spots ( Abel Ferrara coming on like a frazzled Bob Dylan or Nick Cave on 'Open up your Eyes'), instrumentals all with Unkles trademark majestic and dark production. This is the sound of a band at its peak but constantly evolving, these tunes rock hard & at nearly 74 minutes & 22 tracks it is great value. For fans, this is the latest treat in what was surely a feast already.
