land<\/EM> era, but here the track is  in its pure unadulterated rawest form.<\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>and quite raw it is to. <\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>gone are any shreds of evidence of the <EM>bands  <\/EM>hip hop based history, in fact for the new material, the primary source is  rock music. loud and proud.<\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>obviously, <EM>james lavelle, <\/EM>and his now well  estblished studio wizard, <EM>richard file <\/EM>have been hanging out with the  lords of the fuzz rock,&nbsp;<STRONG>queens of the stone age <\/STRONG>quite a  lot in recent times following a few remix teamups etc.<\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>i have to admit, i think that this is a great move.  the results have proven to be something rather unique with one foot in the rock  world, but never drifting too far from the darker edges of the neon lit late  night dance crowd.<\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>especially when alongside the rock orientated  originals you get the more dancefloor based revisions, in the case of the proper  single release, the <EM>part with your money<\/EM> incentive is the 10 minute  epic beast that is called <EM>unkle surrender sound session #5 <\/EM>that comes  on the cd and 12&#8243;, in which james and aidan lavelle (nepotism lives !) strip the  song back and go down the ever so cool&nbsp;route of pulsating minimal  techno.&nbsp;<\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the synthetically enhanced track is&nbsp;a glorious  piece of moody dance music with all the right clicks and glitches but with the  typically massive <STRONG>unkle <\/STRONG>production sheen to make any stereo  system sound fucking amazing.<\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>oh, and if that wasn&#8217;t enough, the brilliantly  disturbing artwork is by <STRONG>massive attacks<\/STRONG> <EM>3d<\/EM> who as  well as sorting out the artwork across the whole project, appears on the  forthcoming <STRONG>war stories <\/STRONG>album that comes out in  july.<\/FONT><\/DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><EM>nb. if you pre-order the <STRONG>war stories  <\/STRONG>album via the <STRONG>unkle<\/STRONG> website, not only do you get the  instrumental extra cd, but there is supposedly an extra 4 track cd that will  only be made available to those who have gone down the
