	Spotlight on Nation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The Holy Empire of Delgados is a massive, devout nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare.
		Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.713 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company.
		Delgados is ranked 13th in the region and 88,648th in the world for Most Cultured.

	The Delgados : Universal Audio - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		The Delgados refer to Universal Audio as their "long-awaited 'pop' album," and while the description is apt, it's their penchant for atmospheric, industrial town melancholia that ultimately wins out.
		What's interesting about that single, as well as the bulk of Universal Audio, is that it's the simple omission of the excessive reverb that defined their two previous records that gives these new tracks their pop sheen.
		Like all Delgados records, it takes repeated drives along the city outskirts to sink in, but when it does there's no going back, and the listener is rewarded once again with something rich, happily overcast, and strangely intangible.

	The Universal - Artists - The Delgados (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Since the release of their first single in 1995, the delgados have consolidated their reputation with an acclaimed debut album and with the remarkable rise of their own record label : Chemikal Underground.
		The first indication of the delgados new material came in August with a new Peel Session: the reaction was extraordinary with John Peel hailing them as "the best band in Britain." The four Peel Session tracks will appear on the delgados second album, due for release in May/June 1998.
		Since their 1993 debut, The Delgados have maintained their strong connections in the Glasglow indie field through their constant touring and record label Chemikal Underground.

	Stayfun » The Delgados
		Having heard it, however, I’ve swept all those reservations away because the new compilation is the perfect way to remember the band - like a grand two disc greatest hits package that’s full of life yet refreshingly different from the originals.
		A perfect summer pop song, yet hearing The Delgados stripped down to acoustics was such a rare thing.
		Usually all strings, horns, flutes and fuzzy guitars, it wasn’t until the very last time I saw them live in Rotterdam that I got a hint of how they could sound when tearing it all back to minimalistic proportions - and even that was only for one song.

	The Expressway to Yr Skull
		The Delgados are one of those bands who don't shy away from using a great deal of instrumentation, whereas some indie bands avoid strings in case they start sounding like The Verve, which I suppose is fair enough.
		This might be the album where the Delgados break through into the mainstream, and though they have done it by turning down the distortion very slightly, don't hold that against them, as this is none the worse for it.
		The Delgados seem to have a thing about openings; namely, the first thirty seconds of their albums tend to not be very good.

	The Delgados @ Leadmill, Sheffield : gig review
		The Delgados, while never being household names, have quietly become one of the most influential bands of recent times.
		Delgados audiences are never the most animated of beasts, and it was no exception at the Leadmill.
		Older songs were also dusted down, such as the wondrous American Trilogy and Accused Of Stealing from the Mercury nominated Great Eastern album, and Arcane Model, from the band's early album Peloton, was greeted enthusiastically by the hardcore faithful.

		Mogwai, the Delgados were in many respects the true epicenter of the contemporary Scottish pop renaissance.
		After issuing the Lazarwalker EP on the Radar imprint, the Delgados returned to Chemikal Underground for the 1996 release of the single "Cinecentre." Two more singles, "Under Canvas Under Wraps" and "Sucrose," as well as a U.K. tour in support of Elastica, preceded the October bow of their first full-length effort, Domestiques.
		In March of 2001, the Delgados also appeared at London's Barbican Centre to perform their original score to a film based on the work of painter Joe Coleman.

	DOA - The Delgados - Universal Audio
		In a lot of ways, The Delgados' Universal Audio is the pop-rock record that scores of bands have been struggling — and, quite honestly, failing — to make in recent years (or, at least, struggling to make since Oasis and their photostatic copies seemed to go the way of the buffalo).
		The Delgados balance this lean toward the studio-bright and commercially accessible not only with their more atypical tracks but with lyrics that you wouldnít expect to accompany music that can feel this sweet and light.
		While many lesser acts seem to throw together hooks as a means of just landing on the air or paving the way for their "real projects," The Delgados seem genuinely engaged in the work, something that could lead more than a few sets of ears to be genuinely engaged in them.

		The Delgados are one of the most loved and respected bands to have emerged from Scotland in the last 10 years.
		They have earned a place in the hearts and record collections of music lovers throughout the world with their articulate brand of intelligent, literate pop music, shot through with invention, diversity and more recently, majestic orchestrations.
		Striving to make each record more ambitious than the last, theirs is a song-writing learning curve that has left many of their contemporaries in the shade.

	The Delgados: The Complete BBC Peel Sessions: Pitchfork Record Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		But if the Delgados’ fanbase was relatively modest in size, it did include the most important fan a fledgling indie act could ask for: late BBC broadcaster John Peel, who-- judging by this impressive 2xCD, 29-song Peel Session collection-- seemed to invite the band to his Maida Vale studios whenever The Fall weren’t available.
		The Delgados’ next album, 2000’s Dave Fridmann-produced The Great Eastern, was arguably their greatest, so it’s somewhat disappointing that it’s only represented by a single four-song session (though the versions of “No Danger” and “Aye Today” prove those songs don’t need Fridmann’s Bonham-esque bombast to connect).
		As The Delgados’ music grew more serious, their Peel Sessions seemed to get more silly: the September 2002 set shows them to be the rare band that can cover ELO (“Mr.

	DOA - The Delgados - Hate
		The Delgados have come a long way since their humble beginnings as a shy Scottish indie-pop quartet who couldn't get a record deal.
		Using Chemikal Underground as a sturdy platform, The Delgados have helped launch the careers of Mogwai, Magoo, Arab Strap, and Bis as well as allowing their own musical stock to grow in quantity and quality.
		If you are already a Delgados fan, you'll gradually develop a little bit of love for Hate, though your instinctive heart will tell you it's not quite as fun as The Breeders-shaped pop of Domestiques (1997) or as remarkable as the glorious folk-psychedelia found on both Peloton (1999) and The Great Eastern (2000).

	The Delgados - Hate : album review
		The Delgados are one of those bands whom critics tend to treat with unashamed fawning, while the majority of the record buying public seem unaware of their existence.
		As on previous Delgados albums, writing and vocal duties are shared between Emma Pollack and Alun Woodward.
		The Delgados' fourth album is an excellent addition to an already impressive canon of work.

		The Delgados, with the off-kilter pop of their new record The Great Eastern, make beauty appear amazingly simple.
		Since most bands fail desperately at this particular endeavor, the Delgados are at least deserving of respect for making such beautiful, organized clutter.
		Although the Delgados don’t take any incredible risks, and they’re not attempting to reinvent any particular genre, where they aim, they generally succeed.

	FREEwilliamsburg: The Delgados - Interview by Alexander Laurence
		Their five albums are some of the most interesting music to come from Scotland in recent times.
		The Delgados' first album Domestiques (1996) immediately caught the attention of the late John Peel.
		He soon introduced The Delgados to the world by featuring their music regularly on his radio show.

	The Music Box: The Delgados - Hate (Album Review)
		Hate, the latest release from Scotland’s The Delgados, is a disc with all the right parts in all the right places.
		The centerpieces of The Delgados are Alun Woodward and Emma Pollock who alternate lead singer duties throughout Hate’s 12 tracks (10 in Europe — Americans supersize everything).
		The Delgados’ secret weapon is producer Dave Fridmann (bass player for Mercury Rev), who reconstructs likable pop numbers into stereophonic skyscrapers of towering keyboards and studio-created symphonies.

	The Delgados: Hate (2003): Reviews
		The dramatic, melancholy undercurrents of string-driven pop nuggets "The Drowning Years" and "Never Look at the Sun" showcase the Delgados as the smart, cutting-edge descendents of the Carpenters: everything Belle & Sebastian want to be, but are too damn precocious to pull off.
		The record is very innocent on the surface, but it’s in the lyrics (again) of Alun Woodward and Emma Pollack that make it cold and dark, even though their vocals seem to make it all sound safe.
		The delgados combine the most beautiful and sublime music with the darkest and most pessimistic lyrics to make an album full of great songs that will give you a hell of an emotional ride.

		The Delgados layer their songs with lush, pristine instrumentation -- strings, flutes, piano, and more -- giving their music a rich, mature feel, and even use distortion and occasional samples like additional instruments.
		The Delgados haven't had much luck getting heard in the States outside of college radio, but they've earned a dedicated following in Britain, especially since their sophomore album, the ambitious, perfectly orchestrated Peloton (1999).
		The Delgados have also released Domestiques, their 1997 debut full-length, and numerous shorter players on Chemikal Underground.

		When Glasgow's Delgados scored a Mercury nomination for 2000's superb the Great Eastern they were leaders in a field of their own.
		Their "first gig of the first tour for our fifth album" is no classic, which somehow fits with their status as pop's most deserving outsiders.
		Who else but the Delgados could survey a crowd, grin, and begin a song with "I became accustomed to a kind of social servitude, and no one, I mean no one, could accept what I had become"?

		What's so great about the Delgados is the way each new album strikes off in a new direction, whilst retaining they're amazing song writing abilities and superb arrangements.
		The Delgados have acheived the elegant and pulsing orchestrations from their previous two albums but with the more raw instrumentation from Peloton.
		The Delgados are a tremendously underated group, who with this album have shown how talented they really are.

		The Delgados are BritPop indie-rockers, which is kind of funny to me for some reason, but what the hell.
		Yeah, the Delgados are BritPopalicious, and yeah, BritPop is cool, and indie-rock is cool, and so, by all contingent lines of reasoning, the Delgados are pretty darned cool.
		The Delgados routinely switch between Stuart Henderson's melancholic baritone and Emma Pollock's ethereal tenor, often within individual songs, providing a natural ambience for the girl-vs.-boy-in-love themes.

		Domestiques is the sound of the Delgados developing their songcraft.

		Elected officials refuse to believe homelessness exists in affluent suburban neighborhoods, so kids without parents, Katrina evacuees, and victims of abuse are left out in the cold.
		This is especially true of "Woke From Dreaming," where her composed, naïf-style vocals shine a frightening light into a murderous, hallucinogenic echo chamber.
		And with the aid of dream weaver Dave Fridmann, the Delgados have again layered a lush sound onto the backs of songs so delicate, it's a wonder that they don't break under the pressure.

		VETERANS OF the fertile Glasgow scene, bosses of Chemikal Underground records, perennial Peel favourites - The Delgados have indie pedigree to burn, but have been toiling away in semi-obscurity for nearly a decade.
		While that album was a collection of songwriting fragments given a post-production gloss by Fridmann, Hate was written, arranged and engineered by The Delgados themselves.
		It's the first time the whole band has been involved in the gestation of an album, and it pays dividends in the record's open, generous feel.
