"I'm suprised that I'm the first to rate this, considering the "Eighties/Come As You Are" debacle. In any case, this whole album is the epitome of cool. It's legit. You guys need to go to more goth clubs."  Reply

"Some of his stuff can be a little self-indulgent, but this album is completely on the money. Funny, irreverant and with some great tunes to boot, this is a classic Zappa album. I haven't gone through his whole catalogue, but this is my favourite so far."  Reply

"I listened to this for the first time a week ago, and I've since gotten terribly addicted to it. We'll see how long the hype holds up, but I'm really high on this record for now."  Reply

"It's a very nice album to make you feel good! All of the lyrics aren't very hard to understand and Sarah's vocals are very cute! This is a good album if you want something easy to listen to, are a fan of J-Pop and nothing to challenging to think about."  Reply

"Reaper is the big hit, and I have always liked it, but my personal favorite is ETI. I think this is a good record, but I also think that BOC isn't for everyone. They have a unique sound that doesn't appeal to everyone. Saw them on the Black & Blue Tour in 1980 in Rockford, IL. Great show."  Reply

"One of those unforgettable records from the mid 80's. Great tracks include What's Love and Better Be Good to Me. Turner's career restarted with a vengeance thanks to this one and it was fun watching that."  Reply

"Really good album. I’ve never heard anything like it in terms of genre blending. I was completely blown away at parts. I think it tapers off towards the end in terms of quality songs."  Reply
