First because no one cared how the band operated, everyone seemed to love them and shimmied like crazy; and second because the only traditional instrument on stage was an electric guitar, which Karl Hyde picked up during the first song and put down 20 minutes later without playing a single note.
There was no room on Avalon's dance floor for the somber nuance and penetrating subtlety that made Dubnobasswithmyheadman and Second Toughest in the Infants smash crossover/breakthrough favorites in England, and critical raves in the US.
Second Toughest's "Pearl's Girl" is more than just a clever beat -- though it's that, too, hammering at its most insistent somewhere between an African talking-drum phrase and a furious speed-hardcore drumroll, and supremely funky (as in James Brown's "Funky Drummer" funky) even at its most downcast.

Second Toughest in the Infants, the group's sophomore LP, updated their sound slightly and received more praise than the debut.
Finally, Second Toughest in the Infants appeared in early 1996 to much critical praise.
The trio gained no small amount of commercial success later in the year when "Born Slippy" was featured on the soundtrack to Trainspotting, the controversial Scottish film that earned praise from critics all over the globe.

 Imprint: New revs - Underworld: Second Toughest in the Infants   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Second Toughest in the Infants, the band's second album, shows that there is far more to this band than some wicked pounding bass.
First off, not many bands could get away with the repetitious beats that Second Toughest in the Infants uses in abundance, but this band do.
Their first album, dubnobasswithmyheadman, got them out of the gates with style, but it's Second Toughest in the Infants that truly establishes Underworld as heavyweights of the genre.

My process of analysis of Second Toughest began when I wanted to know where the lyric, "Rest your head against the steel..." had originated, so I finally sat down and listened to the ineffable Banstyle/Sappys Curry.
From painting soft images in the first movement to the thoughtful drone in the second, I consider it to be one of the finest pieces of music ever to be recorded.
Dubnobasswithmyheadman was a tough act to follow but half-an-hour into Second Toughest In The Infants and still on track two it was clear that Underworld were not lacking in confidence.

 Underworld : Second Toughest in the Infants - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
On their second album, Underworld continue to explore the fringes of dub, dance, and techno, creating a seamless, eclectic fusion of various dance genres.
Second Toughest in the Infants carries the same knockout punch of their debut, Dubnobasswithmyheadman, but it's subtler and more varied, offering proof that the outfit is one of the leading dance collectives of the mid-'90s.

One of the best things about them is that they are equally enjoyable sitting in a couch with your eyes closed as they are on a dance floor.
Second Toughest in the Infants is one of their greatest works.

The proof of this is on the second disc, where their previously unreleased performance from the second show is included in stereo as a bonus.
Bizarro was the Weddoes' second proper album (after George Best, they had released Tommy, a compilation of singles and session tracks, and the unlikely Ukrainski Vistupi V Johna Peela, containing two John Peel sessions of acoustic Ukrainian folk tunes).
The band's extraordinary second single, Anyway Anyhow Anywhere, is unfortunately not included, but a rare early version with a slightly different title, which was released by accident on a French EP in 1966, takes its place.

 Underworld: Beaucoup Fish<>
Dubnobasswithmyheadman was a huge critical success, and with the "Cowgirl"/ "Rez" single taking clubland by storm, Underworld established themselves as major players in British dance music.
Yet little prepared them or the world for "Born Slippy," a single re-released after its use in the movie "Trainspotting," which rocketed to number two in the British charts, rendering Underworld unlikely pop stars and virtually overshadowing the otherwise well-received second LP Second Toughest in the Infants.
Beaucoup Fish is a steady step above second LP Second Toughest in the Infants, and while it never scales the more spectacular heights of Underworld's aforementioned debut, this album sounds like a grower, and will likely appear in a lot of Top Ten lists come December.

Second Toughest in the Infants (Wax Trax!/TVT) 1996
Fans of the album are encouraged to seek out the domestic CD single of "Dirty Epic"/"Cowgirl," which includes not only three mixes of each but also "Rez" (the stunning UK B-side of "Cowgirl") and the seductive "River of Bass."
Continuing in the direction suggested by a 1994 single ("Born Slippy"), Second Toughest in the Infants works within, but is not confined by, the palette of drum-and-bass/jungle sounds that had swelled in popularity.

Unlike Second Toughest in the Infants, which really didn't have any hits at all (but just wait, they had a huge one this same year).
There's also a pair from Second Toughest, those being "Juanita/Kiteless" which opens the show, as well as a totally energetic "Pearl's Girl", which pretty much drills the "crazy crazy crazy crazy" sample into your head even more than the original.
The second half is more interesting - lots of disjointed piano noises that almost led me to believe that it was skipping at the end, with ambient hoopla scattered throughout.

On "Second Toughest in the Infants," however, the trio's music unfolds so slowly that you'd swear they had ulterior motives.
The bluster that colors both "Dubnobasswithmyheadman" and "Beaucoup Fish" is mostly missing, replaced by a sensitive new-age attention to melody and variation.
If he and his bandmates can craft crescendos this subtle, we'd better make sure to get his number in the morning.

Think how many are still around and then think about how many have actually made coherent long-players that dare to straddle more than a couple of genres and yet refuse to become dated.
"Second Toughest..." hardened the dance beats and pop sensibilities of "Dubnobasswithmyheadman" and gave us urgent, insistent, insidiously addictive, hypnotic and above all effortlessly cool dance music for the feet and the ears.
