Second Toughest in the Infants came three years after Underworld's potent debut Dubnobasswithmyheadman.
Opening with an opulent triptych called 'Juanita', 'Kiteless' and 'To Dream Of Love' - three tracks which segue seamlessly into each other and form a quite splendid 16-minute Underworld-a-thon—the trio certainly weren't afraid to indulge when making this LP.
The next track, 'Banstyle / Sappys Curry' seems to confirm this, weighing in at an impressive 15 minutes, though this time nose-diving into some atmospheric, oceanic drum and bass a la LTJ Bukem.
Throughout the rest of the album, Underworld alternate between assuaging their raging club beats with warm washes of sound and beatless splashes of colour, and offering more straight-up heavyweight club fodder.
