Soulwax are nothing short of Belgian enigmas. In the dance music world, people still consider As Heard on Radio Soulwax as a landmark mix album, utilising upwards of 110 elements of tunes to piece together a wild soundtrack to a house party in 2003 – packing electroclash, hip hop, e-funk, synth, house, and more. But then a lot of those listeners haven’t explored the core project these music makers are involved with, Soulwax, an alternative rock outfit in the truest sense.
Much Against Everyones Advice was the record that first got them properly noticed, even if it didn’t necessarily resonate with the electronic crew back in 1998, when it originally hit shelves. How useful, then, to find it being reissued so we can make amends there, and dive into its resolutely funky but tough, intelligent but direct tones, spanning lackadaisical numbers like ‘Proverbial Pants’ to rowdier affairs like the riff-heavy ‘Scream’. – Juno
