"Although some parts of this feel too much like an over-dramatic rock opera, overall this was a breath of fresh air. Picked it up on recommendation from a friend and I was VERY pleasantly surprised. Since I've had to lend it out to a few people, even :)"  Reply

"It's indie and all that, but it's got a little extra rhythmic interest than the usual indie band. There also seems to be a bit of a new wave hangover influencing the music on a few songs, which blends surprisingly well. This is an an album only a Brit band could do, and it's the best blend of UK ..."  [+]  Reply

"No a-ha album can be thought of as totally weak and this album has four UK top 20 singles on it but in terms of a-ha albums, there are much better examples. However, don't dismiss it. "Out Of Blue Comes Green" and "There's Never A Forever Thing" are standout tracks. You can se..."  [+]  Reply

"This album is simply a new, beautiful and rare masterpiece. Original in style, well balanced & consistent - like one long piece made up of related movements - and totally gorgeous sounds and melodies from start to finish. Probably Goldfrapp's best album, and deserves much higher ratings than curr..."  [+]  Reply

"Having been lucky enough to see Steve Hackett live several times, the highlight tracks on this album and in live shows are Every Day, Spectral Mornings and Clocks. Love the bass pedals!"  Reply
