"A surprisingly dance-y record from Saint Etienne who show that they've still got it with synthpop bangers and an intelligent set of lyrics firmly rooted in the love of music and the love of life.

"Maybe the most enjoyable and accessible Pretenders album. Their debut might just shade it but if I had only one of their albums to take to a desert island it's be this one."  Reply

"This is a pretty fun indie pop record with some cool sounding electronic elements. Not as good as their first record however. It starts feeling a bit to repetitive towards the end and a couple of the songs could be trimmed down in length"  Reply

"Not terrible, definitely not great either lol. This made Trout Mask Replica much easier to listen to. Whatever you called this, I call this "proto-punk" because of the instrumentation and Yoko's screeching. Ringo's drumming is just fantastic."  Reply

"Little known, highly influential. This is one album that is regularly quoted by the artists listed on lists. If the musicians that are on the lists would create their own lists, this album would regularly be found in the Top 10s. How come this album not gets picked by amateurs? It is likely a pro..."  [+]  Reply
