Their most recent album, <em>Converting Vegetarians II<\/em>, released almost exactly a year ago, was somewhat disappointing to fans who love the 140+ bpm triplet groove that made the Israeli duo incredibly popular, especially considering how formidable the first <em>Converting Vegetarians<\/em> album was.<\/p><p>After that, which was arguably more of a mainstream house album, it is refreshing to see Infected Mushroom returning to higher tempos where they really shine.
