Good article by Mr Reynolds in the Guardian. (Don't be put off by the haters in the comments, Simon ... you'll find that the Guardian comment pages are full of ignorant shits.)
I wonder if this perception as middlebrow (and thus, for some, as not worthy of interest or acclaim) is also what happened to Burial's 2nd album. The first album was a critical triump, top of every poll, including The Wire's. The second was nowhere, even though it is (IMHO) just as good, though less surprising because it had a precedent. Is there any single song on the 1st that touches "Archangel" from the 2nd?
My 2nd post about Reynolds today. I'm not stalking you, honestly!
