"I was listening to this album for the first time earlier and it's awesome. Not as great as Peace Love Death Metal but it's still worth checking out." Reply

"Some truely classic songs on this album. Nobody's child is probably the saddest song in history. It could easily be on Lou Reed's Berlin album!" Reply

"This album, as well as their self titled, are incredibly underrated in my opinion. I'm seriously in love with their sound. Just a shame about the fact that the single, "New Song" is such a pile of meh." Reply
