"Fantastic album! Some bands sophomore albums aren't as good as their first but man oh man is this one excellent. Shuttered Room is quite the album but Reach the Beach is easily one of the best and most underrated of the 80s."  Reply

"Way different from what we were expecting, first try i didnt really liked it. Tough it grow on me, Always On was a dead-on bullseye. EDIT: This album got me gripped, multiple songs keep haunting my head, i've been playing this album daily since it came out."  Reply
