"Enjoyed the entire album! I am not a great reviewer but I know what I like. Shakira is an accomplished artist...if you aren't sure of this album, listen to a few samplings with an open mind. Close your eyes and relax your mind, listen to the music and her voice..take time to enjoy." Reply

"The swagger is there, he spits out verbal lashings as viciously as usual, but the beats aren't as memorable or the lyrics as deep as they could be." Reply

"Possibly Sloan's heaviest album. While I love Patrick's power pop, and here he has his signature song, "Money City Maniacs", this was the album where Andrew Scott truly shines. "Sinking Ships", "Seems So Heavy", and "On The Horizon" are the three best tracks, all penned by Scott." Reply
"Great album. The epitome of heavy stoner metal." Reply

"Perhaps the most criminally under-appreciated album ever. A gorgeous, sorrowful, and brilliantly cohesive piece of art. A masterpiece that transcends genre." Reply

"The sound featured in this work is extremely hypnotic, catchy, dark and ethereal. A very particular evolution of techno music and ambient combined. I think the more I'm going to listen to it, the more I'll like it." Reply
"Oh, I love the way the album ends, the final 3 tunes are immense. Strange Glue might be Cerys’ best vocal." Reply
"The 1st Mansun album I ever bought, was disappointed with both the prequal and the sequal, but this is stunning and Tom Bakers voice on "Witness to A Murder", amazing track, great album, often overlooked, dismissed even at the time, a bit of a concept album and brilliant start to finish." Reply
