"This album is easily the best female teen pop album of the 00s -- better than britney, beyonce, avril or any of the others, even those that can actually play instruments like vanessa carlton and michelle branch."  Reply

"Underrated, especially given there are some really well-known tracks on here. A great follow-up to the excellent Hour Of Bewilderbeast. My highlights are All Possibilities, Using Our Feet, The Further I Slide and Born Again."  Reply

"Hands Clean hits harder than You Oughta Know... The sucker who slept with her was older, and wanted to keep the relationship secret. Dave Coulier? Some record exec? Either way, he must not have slept well hearing this one. This is actually a decent album - not as blatantly angry as Jagged Little ..."  [+]  Reply

"I think there is. I also think this is another standard affair by Supergrass. Not much new ideas but 12 more catchy and energetic songs on display. 'Seen The Light' and 'Rush Hour Soul' are my favorites! 'Never Done Nothing Like That Before' adds a riot! The boundless youth is still present. More..."  [+]  Reply

"Most of it is usual RnB/Pop filler, but I doubt many could have predicted in 2003 how important those 4 singles would go on to be. The sound of the early noughties, and a full showcase of Timberlakes singing talent."  Reply
