DJ Shadow - The Mountain Will Fall

DJ Shadow - The Mountain Will Fall

No artist that I know of has suffered from a more chronic case of expectations disease than DJ Shadow.

I guess it’s to be expected when your first album isn’t just good, and isn’t just great, but is one of the defining albums of its decade. Critics just can’t seem to grade his later records on their own merits.

Same goes for this one. Best practice for DJ Shadow is to look at the aggregate critic ratings and add about 10 or 15 points to get the real quality of the record.
