Rolling Stone (4/29/99, p.68) - 3 1/2 Stars (out of 5) - "...darkly physical grooves that seduce psyche, body and soul without resorting to instant hooks or easily understood concepts..."
Spin (4/99, pp.157-158) - 7 (out of 10) - "...the British trio hit on a formula that mixes agression and gibberish in just the right proportions..."
MOJO (03/99 p. 84) - "...BEAUCOUP FISH proves that the real deal with electronic music is not that it is fast and crazy....but allows for perfect recall of sounds and moments....music like Underworld's can have a texture as rich, emotive and individual as memory itself."
New Musical Express (4/3/99, p.41) - "...Underworld's third LP brought still more soul to their mix and was a lesson in flexibilty to the increasingly homogenous militia."
Entertainment Weekly (4/16/99, pp.56-57) - "...picks up where founding fathers like Brian Eno and Kraftwerk left off by concentrating on pared-down, melodic pieces, complete with what could be constured as verses and choruses....marks yet another engrossing chapter in the perpetual evolution of techno..." - Rating: A
Q (4/99, p.107) - 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...Beaucoup Fish finds them continuing down an individualistic path as they pull in strands from electronic influences such as Kraftwerk...Giorgio Moroder...and Yello..."
Magnet (4/99, pp. 81-82) - "...Rather than adopt the happy faces of house, the saintly roar of modern minimalist/classical, the bugged-out rhythms of drum 'n' bass or the sloped dope of dub, the first great album of '99 revels in all these styles....[Underworld] seems to be funkin' for nirvana..."
Muzik (1/00, p.69) - "A brutal, bruising take on the band's unique techno template....the melodies were infectious as ever. Trance tunes, swirling basslines and stupendous piano chuggers..."
CMJ (4/12/99, p.3) - "...showcases a more mature, album-oriented Underworld, travelling from over-the-top club maelstroms to ominous, gothic ballads to choppy, experimental rap..."
