Destroy Rock & Roll, the cheaper option of re-recording the original music was employed. This was the case for the use of "Bette Davis Eyes" on "In My Arms", due to the requirement to offer 50% to the holders of "Waiting for a Star to Fall". Conversely, a sampled grunt from the Prince song "Kiss" on "Guilty of Love" was ineligible for copyright due to its brevity. Reception Review aggregator Metacritic gives Destroy Rock & Roll a score of 80/100 from 14 reviews by music critics. Tim DiGravina of AllMusic gave the album four stars out of five, finding cohesiveness among Mylo's different influences and concluding that it "only seems to cement his status among the elite of electronic cut-and-pasters of his time". A rare negative review came from Dave Simpson in The Guardian, who did not find that the album's quality matched its provocative title: "There are moments of promise when Mylo ups the pace, but rock'n'roll faces a greater threat from a feather duster". Elton John endorsed the album on an appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show, saying that "every home should own a copy". The album was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. It was named the 21st best album of the decade by Resident Advisor. Track listing All tracks written by Mylo (aka Myles Macinnes); additional songwriters are mentioned in parentheses.
