"I had a complete 180 with this album. It was by far my least favourite Haustor album, I thought the songs were too long and just dragged out any good moments they had. Now I can't stop listening to it. I still find the opening and closing track to be guilty of the exact things I mentioned, but ev..."  [+]  Reply

"First half of this has quite a darker tone & heavier feel than his other outings. Not saying that's bad, in fact it's bloody great. Back half is a bit sunnier. Enjoyable right through. This is my personal favorite from Ben."  Reply

"This has to be one of the most underrated album on the 60's. I mean, it's really good. My favorite tracks include, but are not limited to: Friends of Mine When You Touch Me We're Coming To Dine"  Reply

"Classic Jim Steinman (the guy who wrote the songs for Meatloaf, Bonnie Tyler, etc) here. This whole album is full of that glorious, over-the-top bombast that is Steinman. There are some interludes, some filler, and a curiously out-of-place cover of The Doors' 20th Century Fox, but the high points..."  [+]  Reply

"This is their best since their debut. It's nothing overly new from them, or great either. However, it took me by surprise. Here my outlook was almost completely sour toward everything that came after that first album. I'm very glad that they managed to create something good again, it gives me hope."  Reply

"Yeah he definitely sounds a bit like ol' Thom on a few tracks here, particularly in his falsetto register, but his band's sound and the album's production is not really very Radiohead. The production reminds me more of Beck's album Modern Guilt with its occasionally surf-style fuzzy guitars and s..."  [+]  Reply
