He's done well critically, very good reviews across the board. The boy has done Scotland proud

Spent the last 30 mins or so skanking in my seat to this brilliant debut

[Kirei]

Anyone else bought the CD and found the disc only contains All Nite, like a one track promo? Got it from HMV. I've emailed Warp.net and haven't had a response yet, not sure exactly who it is I should be contacting about it.

This album is too good for words.

One of the best things I've ever heard to be fair. I used to be hugely critical of Rustie in the early days, but this right here is his masterpiece.

I think I like it because it seems to simply work. I mean, I can definitely see every tune going off in a rave, but I listened to it walking up to uni last week and couldn't help but smile. It's brilliant, all round.

This! When that high pitched synth comes in on ultra thizz it always puts a massive grin on my face.

Impossible not to like. If 'Ultra Thizz' was pushed on Radio 1, it would be number 1. One of those songs that I've no doubt everybody would like if they heard it.

City Star fucking goes off on the dancefloor... every time I hear it, I just lose it

[hutyluty]

bought yesterday seems like a good album

been sleeping too much!

cry flames is the one for me

[murky21]

sick album, got the wax in his native glasgow when i visited on thursday! dope album to play start to end when i need a break from everything else

[soulkids]

I can't figure out why this is the album of the year. I mean there are big tunes but they all sound so samey? I really like Ultra Thizz, All Nite and Cry Flames but the rest.... just ain't my kinda thing, even though I really dig Rusties earlier stuff. The tunes are just overloaded with sounds imho (which was probably the intention).

[sharris]

Bit OT now, but does anyone know the tune after Rusties on that boiler room mix?

the album has taken a while to grow on me, but yeah, some reviews find it disappointing but do not agree. although at first i thought it was all a bit samey, the more time you listen i find it gets better. gotta say the stand out track is (obviously?) ultra thizz!? first heard it dropped at bestival and was looking for ages who it was by/what it was, but it's just too happy and always puts a smile on my face whenever i hear it! Other tracks like hover traps and all nite are my faves too. big album. he's playing in notts tomorrow at stealth, wish i was going :'(

ugh. bad journalism.


whenever reviews like this go out of their way to convolute every thought and provide excessive background information seeped in historical "fact," just seems to me like the writer had little idea of who rustie is when she got the assignment and is overcompensating.
