"I didn't find this one as powerful as Down with the Sickness. Each song seemed like the last, whereas on DwtS each song stood on it's own legs. That said though, it was still a solid album. Some of the best tracks are the title track and I'm Alive for me. Very good piece of work though. Could hav..." [+] Reply
"I used to seriously hate that album because the song Broadsword is among one of the best of the band but all the rest of the album is so weak.

"Despite the lack of diversity and hits, "HH1" is consistent as all get out and gives a very cool vibe included with a story of a way mbetween man and machine." Reply
"Abba's second album from 1974 is in many as a natural sequel to the debut "Ring Ring" from 1973. The recipe is much the same: a handful of fine singles "Waterloo" (not least), "Honey Honey" and "Hasta Mañana" supplemented with a mixed bag of popsongs.

"An incomprehensible, intimidating exhibition of virtuosity." Reply
"While I prefer the more glossy, reverb-coated production on We Don't Need To Whisper, this record is a worthy successor of AVA's sparkling debut record.
