  <review>Fragments of Freedom is Morcheeba's third album. It was released in 2000. The album proved to be one of their most successful albums in terms of chart sales. However, critical reception was not as welcoming as with other Morcheeba albums, mostly due to the drastic change in sound as Morcheeba did away with much of their trip-hop roots in exchange for a pop sound. Special versions of the CD contained a short CD-ROM video of the 'Making of Fragments of Freedom' and also music videos.</review>

  <artistdesc>Morcheeba are an English electronic band formed in the mid-1990s with founding members vocalist Skye Edwards and the brothers Paul and Ross Godfrey. They mix influences from trip hop, rock, folk rock and downtempo, and have produced ten regular studio albums since 1995, two of which reached the UK top ten. Edwards left the band in 2003, after which the brothers used a number of singers before she rejoined in 2009. They recruit additional members for their live performances and have toured internationally. In 2014 Paul Godfrey resigned from the band. Edwards and Ross Godfrey later formed Skye &amp; Ross and released a self-titled album in September 2016. Their latest studio album as Morcheeba, Blackest Blue, was released in May 2021 and was preceded by singles "Sounds of Blue", "Oh Oh Yeah" and "The Moon". It features collaborations with Brad Barr from The Barr Brothers, and Duke Garwood, whom Edwards described as "a diamond geezer".
