Guest artistes include Bjork, Neneh Cherry, Terry Hall, and Alison Moyet (who sings "Make a Change," the most accessible track here). --Jeff Bateman Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Nearly heavenThe opening track is a cover of ''Tattoo'' of the band Siouxsie & The Banshees. It's really effective. All the songs are in the same toxic mood. The collaborations with various singers like Bjork add a plus to the album. Maxinquaye was a must : this one is a great part II.

The fantastic moments felt on Poems, I be the Prophet, Make a Change, Black Coffee, and I Sing for You, are enough to make the entire album shine like gold. Brilliantly done.

The trick is, you have to listen to it numerous times to truly appreciate the album. It is genuinely worth the effort, though. I'll tell u why. Some of the best tracks on this record are "Poems", which will turn ... Read More Rating: - The Blatant Truth about Tricky's Music!This is a masterpiece ! This cd illustrates Tricky's full trip hop ability. All the songs all have the same mood and nothing is out of place. Bjork is featured on this cd along with Martina(His X Girlfriend). The music is classic and the stand out track is a Creepy masterpiece called "Poems". Which I believe "Broken Homes" on "Angels with Dirty Faces" was crafted after. Tricky is on a slow path to destruction, His 1st three efforts were really great this includes Maxinqueye, Nearly God, Pre millennium ... Read More |
