O álbum que coroou The Knife como um dos atos mais importantes do nosso século - uma odisseia da música experimental que vagueia por diferentes sonoridades entre a intensidade do industrial techno ao tom esparso maligno do dark ambient, enquanto os energiza com um tom político cortante que deixa 'Shaking the Habitual' desconcertante e relevante.
