'There's no soul'
'To hell and back'

Those beats are alright, the ting as a whole though sounds like a weak attempt at trying to push a 'dubstep' album into the charts (shite vocals, generic beats, etc). Dunno tbh :/

Tbh. Like said, there's some decent beats on there, would support.

Lol @ the artwork though, saw it on a massive billboard in Finsbury Park and just chuckled to myself. Looks hilarious.

Best of luck to Benga I hope this has significant commercial success

The last album was great I thought and this isn't massively shifted in terms of commerciality...And yeah I find the majority of dungeon sounds exactly the same...it's pleasant enough and more satisfying than this in a narrower way as I like sub bass and the sounds but it's the uninspired manner in which they're all used the same way. This however has proper songs on it which as I get older I realise are harder to throw together in a very different way than clean well mixed down generic halfstep/dungeon

I'm working on vocals right now and it takes fucking ages to get it right...sure he's got the studio behind him but mixing down vocals is not an easy thing to get right and structuring it is a nightmare too...at least to get it perfect

As always all Bengas mixdowns are militant and clean in a way few can match as well...he seems to ditch everything not needed religiously and it gives him a sheen.

Anyway I'm gonna go and listen to world war 7 because I can :)

Vocals kinda feel unnecessary imo. That's the vibe I'm getting from the previews anyway.

only tune i want, and have ever wanted off this album was runnin'

heard it ages ago now, just like it.

benga chats too much shit, pretty much wrote off the whole genre's producers saying they weren't original/creative, but makes commercial as fuck music because he wants to make money.

best of luck to him, but fuck he looked like an idiot when zombles called him out the other day

Disappointed Minors wasn't on it. Love that tune.

Running is really the only tune on it that I'd listen to again.

Album promo vid, looks like he's enjoying it anyway



Not a scooby what's going on, maybe he's going to get all David Bowie and go on some crazy arty missions or something
