Fragments of Freedom is Morcheeba's third album, released in 2000. It was one of their most successful albums in terms of chart sales. Special versions of the CD contained a short CD-ROM video of the 'Making of Fragments of Freedom' and also music videos.

Reception

NME declared "Fragments" to be "an enduring monument to quiet goodness,"[6] while the A.V. Club considered it to have "fine and adventurous" songs that "are more than worthy of the band's legacy", but noted that the wide variety of styles between individual tracks means that it "never quite builds up artistic momentum."[7]Pitchfork Media, however, criticized the album's contents as "no less flat, smooth, or mass-produced than its jewel case", stating that there was "skill and craft" but no "personality or creativity", and that the backup singers make it more difficult to enjoy Skye Edwards' voice;[8] similarly, Robert Christgau rated the album a "dud".[5]
