"A really underrated album. Every track showcases Pete's brilliant songwriting." Reply
"There are a few really great moments such as Cough Cough, but when the band is at their least eccentric they are also at their least interesting. If every song had as much personality the whole way through then this would be a great album." Reply
"The first studio album bought after my Madness introduction with Complete Madness and still enjoyable now. Madness seemed to grow up a little on this one and although the only really well known track is the brilliant Our House I think this was their first really consistent album. Not quite as goo..."

"Great example of the viability of the compilation. Perfect doorway through to their early to mid eighties output." Reply

"I totally get the pretentious thing but I don't think it's near as bad a Josh Tillman (whom I also like). I just discovered this album today and it shook me. Sad, shitty songs make me so happy, I'm not sure why. Therefore this album made me really happy." Reply

"Another quality Eels album containing quite probably my favourite Eels track of the moment - Parallels. Well worth getting the deluxe version with additional disc of tracks with the equally splendid 'Thanks I Guess'!" Reply
"This amazing concept album will give fans of Hawkwind, Arthur Brown, and any hard-acid rock fans an insight into the genius of Robert Calvert. Give it a listen !" Reply
"Easy to forget how bizarre this solo debut is, with the super-tight UK musicians and female backing vocals. Most of it is Velvet Underground left-overs, and every single one was done better in the demo/outtake versions by them. And what the hell is going on on the album cover?" Reply
"Everything appears to be in place, but the results are a little trite. Shame - could have been huge." Reply
