    Madvillain?

    i don't really get it either i haven't got it myself but a few of my mates are well into it so i've heard it a few times at this stage-it seems alright but nothing special... it is very crate diggery/back to basics sounding,reminds me of dj shadow spinoffs from five years ago which even then...
