"Good album. Best 10 songs average is 83,3/100 and the album can get good 85/100. Quite uneven album, songs from great to poor, but ok this is interesting at least. Far and away best song is "You'll follow me down" great 95/100, followed by "Lately" and "Secretly" both good 85/100. All other songs..." [+] Reply

"S-K's amazing and best punk album. The riffs here are uniquely brilliant with Tucker and Brownstein inventing their unique way of interlocking vocals and guitar lines "Call the Doctor", "Hubcap" "Taste Test". Aggressive feminism tracks "I'm not Waiting" and 'Taking Me Home" really hot home. Macfa..." [+] Reply
"The ultimate travesty is that this band is remembered for one song (Sex and Candy). When their entire debut is made up of whimsical stories and memorable songs from the wonderful mind of John Wozniak, who is a criminally underrated songwriter. This album deserves multiple listens and respect." Reply
"Techno with layers and substance. The best is when it gets into a nice groove with the excellent beats, particularly in the middle of the album. Opener "Forever" is another highlight, and I liked the beats and the weird male opera singer on closer "Attached". Along the way there are some tracks t..." [+] 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
"There are a few really great tracks here, and some that could've been left off. One of the songs of the year was "One Week," a song that is fun to sing along with as any. Then "Alcohol," in which the Ladies tell us how much better their lives are now that they've discoverd alcohol. Doesn't everyo..." [+] Reply

"OK this is far more mainstream pop than the more mad-cap early albums but its better than Cosmic Thing (never liked Love Shack) in my opinion. Loved Roam on CT and this has another cracking female vocal with Revolution Earth, the highlight on this album for me, but many good tracks with the weake..." [+] Reply
