ABOUT 'Threat of Rain'
Threat of Rain builds from a murky locked techno groove and a looped refrain of “I’m good, I’m good… I’m alright” into an orchestra of analogue noise that swells and surges and at times obliterates everything around it, which, with the accompanying film by Tomato’s Simon Taylor and Rick Smith, looks and sounds like a lost recording of a musique concrète symposium being broadcast from the DJ booth of the Omen.

ABOUT UNDERWORLD
Underworld are a true one-off - at home headlining the world’s biggest festivals and events, playing underground techno clubs and warehouses, sound-tracking theatre productions or taking over art galleries, disused shoe shops and Japanese department stores.
See more of Underworld's live experience here: • Underworld Live
Having cemented their place in the ’90s underground techno scene, the group’s definitive breakthrough came in 1996 when their timeless anthem ‘Born Slippy (Nuxx)’ became the soundtrack of a generation after it was featured in the film Trainspotting. The success of that single catapulted the band from the underground into the heart of the mainstream.
The following two decades saw them build on that success while never compromising; selling millions of albums, performing countless sold-out shows, providing scores to productions by Academy Award winning directors Anthony Minghella and Danny Boyle, exhibiting in galleries, and sound-tracking the Opening Ceremony to the London 2012 Olympic Games.
The critical and commercial success of the band’s Grammy nominated 2016 album ‘Barbara Barbara, we face a shining future’ saw them headline stages at Coachella, Glastonbury and Summer Sonic.

Ladies and gentlemen, Underworld has entered a second golden era, this quick 'n' dirty guerrilla-style creative approach is suiting them beautifully.

[@joeszilvagyi]

Third golden era?

[@Pauliemelt]

My interpretation of this track, for what its worth: A person trying to convince themselves they are ok (I'm good, I'm alright), but something dark is brewing deep within and gathers momentum until it literally erupts and takes over. When it finally subsides they are left with the aftermath. The threat of rain was actualised and boy did it pour and now everything is drenched.

[@goodsirknight]

Holy shit this is fucking nuts! Absolutely pulverising track, imagine hearing this in a dark club at 4 in the morning. Keep em coming lads x

[@elblanco5]

Sitting here writing some stuff for work and DAMMIT this is so freaking good I stop what I'm doing and just listen in awe. Somebody else here said "Underworld has entered a second golden era..." and that is absolutely true. Jaw on floor.

[@zonesquestiloveunderworld]

This is BRILLIANT. A return to the dark, nocturnal techno sound of the Dark & Long and Cowgirl EPs. SO GOOD!

[@Mibit911]

Right everyone was saying this is back to second toughest but I disagree except for the banging bass 2nd toughest had. To me second toughest is more of a floaty happy ethereal album like an empty world of just bright water and a blue sky and your floating in it. Dubnobass on the other hand is dark moody, and hypnotizing with its nocturnal synths thay pull you into this underground world of techno covered in large buildings ands Grey sky's where it always rains but it's your home and the city never sleeps

[@theblowupdollsmusic]

@@Mibit911 I agree, this is a cool jam but it's missing any real melodic progressions in the bass or the upper registers. It's missing those lush cords and pads from either of those two albums. This is a different direction in my opinion.

[@leonardzimmerman1308]

You are still finding enjoyment in making music - and that shows. I love that we get to go on these journeys with you.

[@markshah437]

Love this track. Reminds me of Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon's On the Run. Incredible suite of music overall though, such an amazing and freeing concept. Hats off to Karl and Rick for such dedication to the art.

[@elyuw]

You just can't beat a properly long Underworld track. Love it, well done guys.

[@whywhywhy9659]

Classic underworld. It's more if a trip than a song. Journey through a dark soundscape, gives me hope.

[@noname-JS]

God I miss the chill techno underground of London

[@tomas_horn]

Alright alright. I spit it out. Definitely a 10 on the badass scale!!

[@Taikiman1]

Don’t ever stop...you guys keep pushing all the boundaries!

[@danwilson7636]

I Love the trance, hypnotic thing. The sounds they come up with seem to fit so well. I'm so thankful for Underworld because they never let me down 😁

[@phuturelee3420]

Fantastic.

[@Scheihalut]

Thank You Very Much - Thats Full Perfect - One of the Best Songs

[@TheSoundrookie]

This is the kind of track that makes me wonder; Is this totally brilliant or is it an easy made attempt to sound like it could be? After listening for 2 years I still can decide, but since I'm stil listening, I'm kinda leaning towards totally brilliant.

[@jacquesmesrine4615]

Yeah this is underworld....hypnotic....

[@adventureswithphil2560]

Well over 3 decades of creating magic. Thank you.

[@reybarr8670]

I LOVE this Album.. Threat of Rain is mind blowing with the synth drones throughout the track. Its well like Pink Floyds On the Run. But You guys take it to another level. I can't get enough of Underworld. This album will be my top.

[@chrishoughton3115]

Holy shitballs, what an EPIC train ride through mental sound city. All aboard!!!

[@Ariel-qn5wc]

This is innovation totally, making music from the 90's and they still surprising me but i think they passed to another state of mind, and conscious.

[@M77BOOTS]

I'm under water with this music, floating freely and following the current

[@cadburykid141]

10 parts of DRIFT down and this is the best...proper techno!

[@spikee2564]

It's like the ultra best of Brian Eno combined with the ultra best of Underworld. Seldom have I been this ecstatic! The soundscape created by all these layers is just amazing.

[@ogasi1798]

SO GOOD

[@tabazan9182]

You never cease too too amaze me with your constant quality...

[@ptownie7603]

[@CristianSirb]

TECHNO pioneers and still avant-garde!

[@djoniriaable]

Terrific exercise of Intelligent Techno !!! Absolutely amazing !!!

[@girlinagale]

Quality, no label ghost producers were harmed in the making of this. Do it yourself, it gets better that way.

[@Taikiman1]

I have been following you guys for over a decade! Just keeps getting better!!!

[@highspacefox]

This might sound silly, but I think a modern interpretation / remix of Underneath the Radar and Change The Weather albums would be fantastic. The drift series is absolutely outstanding and I thank you for the continued creation!

[@landonweb]

Always the best. One of a kind.

[@ruip100]

Max no one bether
