Hard to believe this is even the same act that put out Chill Out, but then these guys are pretty weird weirdos if the stories are to believed.
The White Room is a comparatively straightforward thumping techno raveup, full of questionable rap, keening female vocals or both, and so on.
Word is the album was tarted up with such 'Stadium House' elements after the initial sessions to broaden its appeal, and word is that was a genius move that was a minor revolution in house music. If you say so, maybe you had to be there when it broke, and maybe it deserves credit for taking house music bigger dumber places than it had ever been before, but I'm not a fan of questionable rap or keening female vocals, let alone big pulsing dub bass, crowd samples, or whatever the hell is going on Justified and Ancient. There's a compelling track or two buried in there somewhere, but too many of these songs are aggressively annoying for me to settle on much better than 1.5/5
