The Avalanches are a much-feted six-man crew of sample-addicts from down-under, whose debut album Since I Left You is a bargain-bin vinyl throwback to the Daisy Age. Their everything-but-the-kitchen-sink approach is exemplified by their debut single, "Since I Left You", which opens the record with its wistful disco-samba shuffle and a scintillating sliced-and-diced soul vocal.

Reviews"...A Restless, Ever-Morphing Collage of R&B, Pop, and Rock Samples....Exhilarating..."-Rating: B, 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...As sunny as an Australian summer, harnessing a wide range of music...with the new toy joy of early sampling-based rap and a dance-music sensibility....true talent.", 8 Out of 10-"...A Kaleidoscopically Surreal Groove Machine with a Heart...", "The densely layered cornucopia of dazzle (a thousand samples from hundreds of records) is the end product of 18 months spent combing Australian thrift stores for used vinyl.", "...Headphone Nirvana..."

Additional InformationA collagist masterpiece on par with -- and distinct from -- the best of the Bomb Squad (Public Enemy), De La Soul, and DJ Shadow.

Great Album
This Album contains many distinct songs and moods. It apparently has over 900 samples which i love when its done well, as this is.The songs blend seamlessly into one another. I thought this was a meticulously constructed album, and is brimming with spontaneity, joy, sadness, humor, reflection, and general human-ness. With a high fun factor and deep emotion. I just love it. Bought this to replace the one i had that got slightly damaged.

brilliant
I hadn't even heard of them until one of their new ones was aired on radio 6 (frankie Sinatra). looked them up and bought a copy of their first album since I left you - totally different - fantastic mixed bag of everything. It probably wont immediately grab you 100% but keep listening! - best album I've bought in years! have also bought the new album wildflower and still working it out!
