"Despite its messy gestation and indifference to it on its release, this is BOCs lost classic. If only we could have had the 3 volume complete Soft Doctrines of Imaginos as Albert Bouchard envisaged."  Reply

"A fantastic Indie-Punk album. The album can really only be described as 'Fun'. That's what it is, a few people rocking out on their guitars and having fun with it. As for the actual band, it's a very sad story, and may the members rest in peace."  Reply

"Calexico are a band that's gotten a lot of alt-country buzz over the years, but I've never really gotten into too much. This is one of their more acclaimed albums. About half the tracks are instrumentals, and I tend to get bored during those, but the other half are really nice songs."  Reply
