Underworld are back. It's been along time in the making but after months in the studio and roadtesting around the worlds dance festivals, Underworld return with the soundtrack to your summer 'Crocodile'. The styles change but the quality never drops and once again Rick and Karl unleash another anthem to stand along side 'Born Slippy', 'Two Months Off' & 'Rez'.

With mixes from Pete Heller and Oliver Huntemann, this package is of the highest order. The album 'Oblivion With Bells' follows a week later and was recorded over 5 years in hotels rooms around the world, in Abbey Road Studios, in a back bedroom in Romford, a pig shed in deepest rural Essex and right now it feels that they've hit their target. Bulls-eye. They've given us one of their finest works ever!

'Crocodile' is the first heavyweight lifted from the long-awaited, fifth studio album, 'Oblivion With Bells'. 'Crocodile' is, put simply, Underworld at their best. Its warped and bittersweet melodies are all held together by a meld of percussive genius that's familiar but striving in new directions.

Pete Heller has risen to the challenge as usual taking the track in more of a house direction, but keeping the textures alive and cleaning up the vocals. The result is a typically masterful reworking. Bremen's finest Oliver Huntemann excels with an emotive techno remix . He strips the vocal back too, giving the song a concise and direct structure and then he wraps it in a warm rolling bass heavy techno blanket. Late night business for the heads, and the connoisseurs alike.
