REVIEWS/ADOLYGIAD

HIP HOP POETRY IN MOTION IN THE MOTHER TONGUE , AND DESPITE IT NOT BEING IN MY MOTHER'S TONGUE , IT'S PRETTY FUCKING BRILLIANT

MELODY MAKER

WHO'D HAVE THOUGHT THE WELSH LANGUAGE WOULD LEND ITSELF TO RAP ? THE TYSTION'S ALBUM SHRUG OFF YA COMPLEX LENDS CREDENCE TO THIS IDEA , YOU MAY NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY'RE SAYING UT THE INTENSITY TRANSCENDS LINGUISTIC BARRIERS

THE GUARDIAN

THERE'S A JOYOUS SENSE OF DEVIL-MAY CARE PROVOCATIVE EXPERIMENTATION ABOUT THIS REOCRD , THIS MOB HAVE MORE FRESH IDEAS AND GOBSHITE ENERGY THAN YOU'LL FIND ON THE LAST TWO PUBLIC ENEMY ALBUMS PUT TOGETHER

NME

THERE'S NOT A SECOND ON THIS ALBUM THAT HASN'T GOT ABOUT 156 IDEAS FIGHTING FOR DOMINANCE - ALL THIS COMBINES TO CREATE MUSIC THAT GOES FROM LOW-SLUNG FUNKY GROOVES TO MORE FLAT OUT FIST-IN -YER FACE RAPS , A FINE FEAST OF MUSIC.

THE FLY

FUCK OFF TO RACISM , FUCK OFF TO LAZY CLICHE FUCK OFF TO TRADITION . THE PAST MAY BE MINES BUT THE FUTURE'S THEIRS
