Product Description

CD Description

Debut album proper from London-based exponents of indie-grime, Hadouken. A layered, dense album that attacks the sensesand mixes grime aesthetics with a DIY indie ethos, this album is a truly unique work. Includes the singles 'That Boy That Girl', 'Get Smashed Gatecrash' and 'Liquid Lives'.

3.0 out of 5 stars After over a year of waiting, Hadouken! finally deliver their album debut, 17 May 2008
By Alan the Kaz (London, England) - See all my reviews
Hadouken! have been receiving enormous hype from the likes of NME and X-FM for a long time now and, after a string of highly praised singles, this album comes bundled with a host of high expectations. One year ago, the Hadouken! sound and flavour was exciting and original, but this far ahead it's become a bit less powerful. It's a shame, because if Hadouken! had released this album back then, instead of the gimmicky USB mix tape, this could have had a far bigger impact. But, despite that, `Music for an Accelerated Culture' is still a decent debut. The singles, while not necessarily as exciting as they once were, are still great. The new songs are hit-and-miss; some of them (such as `Game Over') are great, whereas some of the others are somewhat unmemorable. This album makes for good background noise to accompany an alcohol-fuelled night out more than anything else. Despite its shortcomings though, there is certainly enough here to warrant a purchase if you liked the singles.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great sound, terrible lyrics, 1 July 2008
Having heard the single Crank It Up, I was intrigued by this band who had good beats and filthy basslines, but was hoping for lyrics that were slightly less stereotypical about uploading your new mp3 onto myspace and gatecrashing house parties. Unfortunately, they seem to suffer from the Get Cape Wear Cape Fly issue of having lyrics that attempt to sound cutting edge and witty, but just end up sounding like the wit of a 16 year old. But aside from that, they have one formula which they stick to, and it works- the dance beats and programmed bassline have a mission-music quality to it. It's just unfortunate as songs such as Crank It Up, and Spend Your Life which mixes acoustic loops with Nintendo bitcrusher sounds, songs which first sound brilliant, can end up sounding so angry and teenage.

3.0 out of 5 stars Music For An Accelerated Culture., 1 Jan 2009
By Guitar Heroine "Music maestro" (Liverpool, England.) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)   
I would classify Hadouken as electro-grime. I saw them at Sound City in Liverpool last year and thought they were interesting. Their album is pretty much as expected. It's just OK.

They sound unique, which is great, but the album itself does not sound unique; every track sounds the same as the others, and it is lyrically weak.

They have the right idea, but I'd like to see more diversity in the sounds they produce and slightly more imaginative and credible lyrics.
