Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Music ratings Dumbing Up is the fifth and final studio album by World Party, released in 2000 on Karl Wallinger's own record label.

Release

The album was re-released in 2006 with new track listing and bonus DVD with the music videos. In addition to changing the song sequence, the 2006 release of Dumbing Up drops the tracks "All the Love That's Wasted" and "Little Bit of Perfection", and replaces them with "'Til I Got You" and "I Thought You Were a Spy".

Reception

The album peaked at No. 64 on the UK Albums Chart.

NPR wrote that "with great melodies and astute lyrics, Dumbing Up is cause for celebration." The Guardian wrote that the songs, while tuneful, "display a dogged determination to ignore the last 30 years of pop." The Washington Post thought that "once again [Wallinger] revels in Have a Nice Day-era sounds."
