"Zimmerman's best venture into house music to date. Big hitting dance songs balanced out by more experimental, ambient ones like Soma and brought together fantastically at the end with Strobe.

"OK this is far more mainstream pop than the more mad-cap early albums but its better than Cosmic Thing (never liked Love Shack) in my opinion.

"The 1st Mansun album I ever bought, was disappointed with both the prequal and the sequal, but this is stunning and Tom Bakers voice on "Witness to A Murder", amazing track, great album, often overlooked, dismissed even at the time, a bit of a concept album and brilliant start to finish."  Reply

"O'Rourke is like an abstract painter that only focuses on surreal realism. The amount of talent on here can be dissected evenly between the exquisite lyrics & application to the musicality."  Reply
