"Monch is one of the greatest MC's of all-time, and this (his first solo effort) is stunning. His most fun album. His array of flows is ridiculous, and the beats are sweet. Good luck finding it pon CD doe."  Reply

"This album is near perfection in my opinion. Even though there is no weak moment in here, Fim da Canção, Deixa Morrer and Capitão Romance are the highlights. Every music fan should listen to this album and then give a chance to Portuguese music."  Reply

"Well. The first 2 tracks (singles) are pretty good and I don't mind hearing them occasionally. "I Will Be There" is probably the next best track. "Soda Pop" and "E-Mail My Heart" are kind of "cringe" as the kids say. The rest is just mediocre."  Reply

"a beautiful collection of songs about love & loss & heartbreak. one interesting note is about the track "wasted time"... the song seems to cut off in mid-sentence, and i though i'd gotten a defective copy. but after sending a note to the label, i actually got a reply and it turns out the producer..."  [+]  Reply

"I suppose this is a bit of a transitional album. Its the first point where they consistently vary the arrangements of their songs- adding strings, static sound effects, different guitar effects and percussion sounds. Thematically they are becoming a bit less angsty, and throwing some vaguely reli..."  [+]  Reply

"A nice companion piece for any bed room with a big union jack and collection of CDs from the rule britania times. You love Blur and Supergrass? Then you are in for a treat."  Reply

"Rich has been an incredibly prolific artist, which has been both a blessing and a curse. The former because a fan can count on new product every other year at least. The latter because most of his studio releases contain a dollop or two of filler material. This album holds special standing for me..."  [+]  Reply
