Soulwax - Much Against Everyone’s Advice | Album Review

Soulwax is best known for their remixes of such 2000s artists as LCD Soundsystem, Tame Impala, Gorillaz, Tiga, and more, but the band actually got their start as a catchy alternative rock band produced by the Chris Goss (of Masters of Reality) on their debut and Dave Sardy (Barkmarket) on their sophomore album, Much Against Everyone's Advice. Splitting their sound between chunky distorted guitars on tracks like "Too Many DJs" and "Conversation Intercom" and more a delicate approach on "Overweight Karate Kid" and "Flying Without Wings," it gives the album variety. But depending on which version you listen, the album can run long after an elongated lull in the middle that could be rectified with a reshuffling of the track list.   Songs In This Episode: Intro - Much Against Everyone's Advice 14:27 - Too Many DJs 16:48 - Overweight Karate Kid 21:05 - Flying Without Wings 25:13 - My Cruel Joke Outro - When Logics Die   Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon.
