Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Two turntables and a microphone--and, a box load of old synths, a guitar, a four-track recorder and a crate of truly weird vinyl: that's the way it is with Minneapolis-based hip-hop project Fog. Forget all that equipment a second, though, because this is a one man band--the creation of Andrew Broder, a hip-hop fan frustrated by the genre's limitations, and determined to explode them. He came to Ninja Tune's attention through his ties to hip-hop surrealists cLOUDEAD, and this, his debut album, has much in common with that group's pioneering work: eerie soundscapes, feverishly weird turntable scratching, lyrics that walk the tightrope between genius and pretension and a total disregard for anything approaching formula. The gorgeous "Pneumonia" is a bare, confessional strum-a-long that could almost pass for a ramshackle early work by Badly Drawn Boy, while the likes of "Truth And Laughing Gas" come on like a punk-rock DJ Shadow, ripping up atmospheric beats and spitting them back in a riot of splintered breaks and wild scratch gymnastics. Dose One of cLOUDEAD even crops up with a guest lyric on "Glory". This is indie-rap as it should be done. --Louis Pattison Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - A warm and murky trip through the Fog.Take a little trip through the mind of Andrew Broder aka Fog. Apparently someone forgot to clue Mr. Broder in on the fact that music has genres, walls that should be left up, and bridges not to be crossed. Maybe he knows exactly what he's doing. Maybe he's watching Beck's genre-blending antics rocket him towads success and stardom and Fog has decided to follow. But for some reason I don't think so. Fog is a million times more sincere. He wears his heart on his sleave and it looks good there. The album has a beautifully cohesive feel from beginning to end, it makes you feel as though you are walking through the Fog. Some highlights of the album: "A Word of Advice" opens the album with MF Doom guest MCing and giving ...

That is not say that is bad, but guitars?? In sound its fairly similar to DJ Shadow in that has mad samples and nice noises, so it's nice and chilled, for the most part really relaxing and certainly will be an interesting part of my CD collection. So good, but different although it does have alot of scratchings... |
