"‘O Monolith’ doesn’t quite reach the lofty peaks of ‘Bright Green Field’ in my humble opinion, but still proves itself as a worthy sophomore album nonetheless."  Reply

"Bouncy, energy-filled new wave record and a welcome addition to Joe Jackson's catalog. It's a bit up and down with a handful of tracks I would be fine without, but that's counteracted with some of his very best stuff—On Your Radio, It's Different for Girls, the title track, and Don't Wanna Be Lik..."  [+]  Reply

"Their first album as a rock quintet, with leader Arnaldo Baptista changing from bass to keyboards (Liminha, who in the next decade would become an important producer/studio owner, is the new bassist). Not prog rock yet (they were more creative and fun than most prog rock bands), but they started ..."  [+]  Reply

"Of course everybody refers to their first album as their best but in my opinion this album is nearly as good; not only because it has their best track (Ever Fallen In Love) but also because all the other ones are top Buzzcocks as well (with Operators Manual as the second best)."  Reply
