A stark affair. But Lavelle manages to weave some light through it

Lavelle, as UNKLE, is at the top of his game; The Road, Part 1 is an excellent display of his talent

The Quietus
There’s a passionate, earnest vibe that spills out to fill any cracks in quality, a window into Lavelle’s soul that somehow opens wider whenever someone else takes the microphone

Really does sound like a part 1, a somewhat confused album that is more a missing piece in a grander puzzle than a complete whole unto itself

Lavelle has put together an eclectic mix, but it never really gels together. Instead, the highlights make the bad songs sound even worse
