"After Going deaf for Living, this album was way darker, also because the new input of the keyboards. But their direct statements were much more meaningful and founded the success for the band of John Watts in europe. Side A is an absolute classic. And B with Cruise Missiles and Luton to Lisbon a ..."  [+]  Reply

"Not as good as her debut but a good album nonetheless. The best tracks are the first 2 and the last 2. Be Careful Of My Heart & Subcity are the next best. The only track I would skip is Material World the rest of the album is good."  Reply

"Can this be higher for 2000? I just love this album. Like I checked on RYM to see that this was a mirco/deep house. And damn this didn't disappoint at all. Like this still feels futuristic and cutting edge even with almost two decades under its belt. Man 2000 has gotten crazy. Might be top 10 fro..."  [+]  Reply

"If you're familiar with the musical styles of david byrne (of the talking heads) and st. vincent, then you may be interested to know that this album falls more in line with byrne's disjointed, funky style than vincent's melodramatic flair. While the talking heads never employed an accompanyment o..."  [+]  Reply
