This is a fantastic album. Why do people consistently measure albums against that label's previous releases? That's ridiculous! Judge each album on its on merits. Fire Ant is his ode to Dilla, and it works extremely well. Jesus, what is with you people? I can’t let this go on! This is a fantastic album.

I didnt see it straight away. I loved the album when released. Its only after the summer and a few more plays - then you reach for a clark LP or BOC LP - got back to AA and you realise how bad it is. Sorry Bibio, but it may go down as a turkey on warp releases. I totally agree with the OP and the review is spot on. BTW - is fire ant a joke? 1/10 Good review. I didnt see it straight away.

I saw him DJ at a brainfeeder night and it was all wonky hiphop and dubstep; I think he's in a transitory period where he wants to be something much more dancefloor oriented, but he can't reconcile it with his old material. there's hope yet though I reckon!

I DIDNT BUY THE SECOND ONE AS SOME KIND SOUL(SEEK) MADE A COPY FOR ME. BUT I WENT OUT AGAIN TO BUY THE THIRD ALBUM. DESPITE ALL THE REVIEWS I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. IT DIDNT EVOLVE AT ALL. THAT WAS THE GOOD THING ABOUT A BIBIO ALBUM, BECAUSE UNLIKE MOST OTHERS OF SIMILAR GENRE, IT WAS VERY ORGANIC AND THE LISTENER COULD SEE IT GROW. I GUESS THE EXCITEMENT OF WHAT A BIBIO PROJECT MAY GROW INTO WAS MORE EXCITING THAN THE FINAL RESULTS. I CANT LISTEN TO AMBIVALENCE AVENUE WITHOUT THINKING WHAT A SHAME IT IS THAT HE TOOK THIS DIRECTION. IF YOU LISTEN TO IT DIRECTLY AFTER FI YOU WILL KNOW WHAT I MEAN. I KNOW A LOT OF FRIENDS THAT LIVE AND DIE BY WARP THAT THINK THE SAME THING. COBY. I BROUGHT FI FROM THE BOC RECOMMENDATION AND THOUGHT IT WAS $15 WELL SPENT.

He seemed to have run out of ideas. The guy has talent but perhaps he should stick to producing cause quite frankly amb avenue is a tad cringy :( Its not all criticism, I think there was some unfair comments about his Ovals EP. As a concept album, I liked it. I just hope he doesnt continue to tread in the high street with his music. And BTW, he doesnt take critisism well. I hae seen some blogs on his myspace where he hits back at bad reviews of his work. Geez, not everyone is gonna like your stuff. 3/10 I liked Bibio’s first album. hand cranked was great in places, but it was a step too far for the compost album. He seemed to have run out of ideas.
