专辑介绍
by Alex Henderson
After recording nothing but EPs, the Dub Pistols delivered their first full-length album with Point Blank, one of late 1998's more noteworthy examples of electronica. The thing that makes the Pistols' electronica/big beat more substantial than similar efforts is their broad-minded outlook and willingness to incorporate a variety of influences. While a lot of late-1990s electronica could wear thin quickly (especially outside of a club setting), the less predictable Pistols manage to hold one's attention for a longer period and usually avoid becoming boring or one-dimensional. Point Blank kicks into high gear with the infectious, Public Enemy-influenced rap/dance number &Unique Freak& before drawing on everything from acid house and techno (&Blaze the Room&) to ska (&Cyclone&) and dubwise reggae (&Ghetto&). To be sure, this is club music first and foremost, but even those who could have cared less about going to a rave could sit down and admire the Pistols' efforts to avoid electronica's limitations. They don't avoid them altogether -- toward the end of the CD, the tracks start to sound mechanical and impersonal. But part of the time, Point Blank provides a memorable and risk-taking visit to clubland.

- @Leroy(NOT LISTENIN...)：DP的处女作让Dub迷振臂高呼，90年代英国电子界（可以说世界，此唱片发行与90年代末）正是G-House登堂入室，一片大好风光，在Audio Bullys的带领下那年耳际响彻着的是摇滚和嘻哈迷得福音。这张以敏感的商业、潮流嗅觉采取了一种倚重G-House,Big Beat,Club节奏中和相对少的Dub,外添Turntablism缓拍点缀的务实做法。相较之后出版的三张唱片，这张可以说更加青稚和纯粹，真正的艺术家总是在自己的艺术道路上越玩越自我，越来越非主流，越来越没有销量，但这时他们就留被呼作艺术家或者被遗忘不远了。
