Splendid Magazine reviews Babyland: The Finger (563 words)
Babyland are challenging in this regard, creating ornate rhythmic assaults from a noticeably limited palette.
The samples Babyland use are almost distracting in their commonality, but that's actually one more way the band demonstrate their skills.
Babyland's combination of attention to detail and unflagging faith in a good beat -- the sort you normally only find in hip-hop -- mean that only the most inexcusably lazy listeners will be bored by their music.
