Ben says:  I had heard Trigger Hippie several times on the radio, but never really caught who it was by. I'd say to myself, "Ah yes, Morcheeba, must remember them." Then promptly proceed to forget it once I came anywhere near a record shop. If it wasn't for that fact I could probably have said I was the first on my block with the album, sad anorak that I am, but this way I ended up with a "special limited edition" version of the album with three additional CDs of the singles they obviously couldn't get rid of.

And it's a shame that they needed to do this because "Who can you trust?" is a cracking album of laid back grooves that are quite reminiscent of the Bristol feel - slightly jazzy, slinky female vocals and a dub sensibility. I still know nothing about the band, but this is a good CD to put on to accompany the latter stages of a dinner party. People can take as little or as much notice of it as they want - they can dance to it or simply nod their heads in time to the hypnotic beat.

I'm sure we'll hear more from them.
Ben gives it:yay!yay!yay!yay!duh!
