Synopsis

Album Description

Limited edition two CD pressing of their 2007 album features a bonus disc containing instrumental versions of all 14 tracks featured on the album. Unkle return with their third album, War Stories, on James Lavelle's new label, Surrender All. Co-produced by themselves and Chris Goss, guests vocalists include Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age), Ian Astbury (The Cult), and 3D (Massive Attack), while there are also full band collaborations from Autolux and The Duke Spirit. James Lavelle makes his vocal debut on 'Hold My Hand' as well as dueting with Richard File on 'Morning Rage'. In a departure from the previous two albums, most of the instrumentation on War Stories is played live. Unkle enlisted a variety of players to contribute: Jeordie White AKA Twiggy Ramirez lends his bass playing skills to 'Burn My Shadow'; Nada Surf's Matthew Caws contributes guitar riffs to 'Broken', while Eagles of Death Metal's David Catching plays guitar on various tracks. Surrender All. 2007.

CD Reviews

Very Nice!!!!

Me! | New England | 07/26/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I won't review the music (love it) as only a Unkle Fan would be reading this anyway, so you are predetermined to buy it. Anwyay, this package worth every penny. The first disc is the single disc version, the second disc is all intrumentals starting with the track "Hold My Hand." The packaging is fantastic and really looks great on your CD shelf (make sure your shelf has some extra head room because the case is bigger than most normal cases, think book format). The shrink wrap on the case is a pain to get off though (its on there EXTREMELY tight), but here is the instructs from the offical Unkle site on how to get that stuff off w/o damaging the case:

Step 1: Pull the sides apart for about a minute to loosen up the outside package and let air in.

Step 2: Grab the box with the sliding end facing away from you and shake it hard for a couple of minutes.

Step 3: Once the inner case slides out a bit, grab it and pull.

Step 4: Smile because you've opened the new UNKLE treasure chest.

Step 5: Put the CD in, turn up the volume, check out the artwork in the booklet and enjoy!
