Back to Mine: Audio Bullys, compiled by electronic music duo Audio Bullys, is the fifteenth album in the Back to Mine series published by Disco Mix Club. [1] Released in November 2003, the album features a new song by the duo entitled "All Burnt Out". [2]
In the album's liner notes, frontman Simon Franks stated that Divine Madness by Madness was what piqued his interest in the band, and that " A Message to You, Rudy" was what prompted him to become interested in ska band the Specials, both of whose compositions appear on the album. [3]
Will Hodgkinson of The Guardian opined that "Franks' rough voice, the laddish lyrics and the music's club-drenched style make the Audio Bullys seem quite tough", [3] with Oldies.com stating that "Franks adopts a vocal style somewhere between speech and song, but the music, geared by Dinsdale's sensibilities as a DJ, is propelled towards the dancefloor", going on to further describe the album as being "typically diverse". [4] Marisa Brown of Rovi Corporation described the album as a "particularly rock heavy set". [5] Rowan Shaeffer of Counterculture offered a different view, writing that the duo was unable to combine the tunes into a cohesive mix, citing abrupt changes in speed and style of music, with " Peaches" by the Stranglers being overpowered by " Out Of Space" by the Prodigy, and Marvin Gaye being swept away by the debut of the band's exclusive contribution to the album, "All Burnt Out", a composition that impressed Shaeffer. [6]
The album was also released on vinyl as a three-LP set with the same tracks in a completely different order. [7]
