Becoming X is one of the most engaging byproducts of post-
Portishead trip-hop. While
the Sneaker Pimps don't have the doomed romanticism of
Portishead or the nasty
experimental tendencies of
Tricky, they have a cool sense of
pop hooks and an edgier guitar attack than their predecessors.
"Tesko Suicide" moves along with jagged guitars and rhythms, while
"6 Underground" is coolly detached postmodern
soul.
Becoming X creates an airy, urban atmosphere, and while the record begins to unravel toward the end, it is an exciting, entrancing listen.
