The Packaging Makes You Crazy!
I am so angry that I want to throw this thing out the window! If the packaging was their idea of a joke, it's a really bad one. I love UNKLE, love the music, love everything, but I had to take a star away because of how damn DIFFICULT it is to get the product out of the packaging! It took me 1/2 hour and TOOLS to rip it out of its case! Now I have a ruined case and torn apart book even though it was brand new.


WOW!
" Psyence Fiction is no longer the best UNKLE album, in fact it's a very distant second place compared to War Stories. For those of you sleeping on the "Post DJ Shadow Era. This is not only the best album of 2007 but one of the all time greatest albums. I'm not kidding, I've been listening to this disc constantly for over six months now and I'm not done yet. A day without War Stories is like a year without any other album. I simply can't get enough of it. If you want something different, catchy and down right good, then this is for you. I honestly recommend this album for anyone.


very very nice
these guys really have not ever made a bad cd. it is nothing like the last cd, that is still a good thing. this one is great because they went (again) in a different direction. the locals are great, and about three of the songs have been on csi n. y. i give it 5 stars, and cant wait to hear a remix lp. . . . . . killerblack hit me up .


Very Nice!!!!
Anwyay, this package worth every penny. 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. 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!
