"Better than her debut but still not great. Irreplaceable and Ring The Alarm are the best tracks, the rest aren't too bad they just do not blow me away. Her next album was much better." Reply

"To quote someone on Reddit, "The Van Morrison of the Twitter age". And to quote Pitchfork, "Everything feels silvery and romantic, like a hallucination of the classic-rock songbook".

"Listened to the original record over and over again, still after 25 years this is one of my favorites." Reply
"A real cool album with an amazing vibe all throughout. I don't speak Russian so I can't understand the lyrics but I really like the music. A recommendation for everyone who is a fan of that unique sound of the 80s." Reply

"Relaxing album of fine guitar work. Fusing folk and blues in its own unique way, though nothing here is a classic. 8.5/10" Reply

"I wasn't a big fan of Thrice until I heard this album. When I did, I thought, there is hope for American rock in the 2000s.

"Vivian Stanshall's Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band were one of the most comical UK bands of the late 1960s and this was undoubtedly their best LP release. Its satirical side undoubtedly served, to some, as a welcome release for those tiring of the inundation of so much psychedelia and other less meritable..." [+] Reply
