The Profile

UNKLE is a British music project founded in London by James Lavelle (Mo’ Wax) and Tim Goldsworthy, debuting with the DJ Shadow-led Psyence Fiction (1998) and evolving from trip hop into rock-leaning collaborations on later albums.

Founded in 1992 in London by James Lavelle and Tim Goldsworthy. Debut album Psyence Fiction (1998) was created with DJ Shadow and featured high-profile guests. Follow-ups include Never, Never, Land (2003) with Richard File and War Stories (2007), which leaned into rock with contributors such as Josh Homme, Ian Astbury, and 3D. Later releases include Where Did the Night Fall (2010) and The Road Pt. 1 (2017).

Five DeBaser reviews chart UNKLE’s shapeshifting: the trip‑hop landmark Psyence Fiction praised, the spacey Never, Never, Land admired, and War Stories hailed for a rock pivot. Night’s Temper EP gets enthusiastic endorsement for its dirty-warm grit and guests. The Road Pt. 1 draws criticism as polished but uninspired. Overall tone: largely positive with one dissenting voice.
