Odyssey is one of the most underated albums of 2005. With the exception of Wednesday, there isn't much filler here. Excelent pop melodies with electronic beats without being "electroclash."
Sean gave it a10:
My favorite album of the year. Awesome!
worrybot gave it a10:
my first exposure to fischerspooner was through a photo in some magazine of either fischer or spooner, i can't remember, in vampire drag make-up, parading aournd on stage with a mic stand. i initially brushed them off as some gimmick laden, style-over-substance flash in the pan. but this album is exceptional- dancable, spacey pop- and might be my favorite of the year.
francis d gave it a2:
really awful, impossible to listen more than 3 songs. The single is worst than "another brick iin the wall"
LJ gave it a9:
Great album... a vast improvement on #1.....
[Anonymous] gave it a9:
I agree. This is a corking album. Excellent indie electro pop.
Dan S gave it a9:
There is not really anything negative to say about this album. No, it won't change your life, but it sure as hell will give you confidence that a major label can deliver, albeit rarely. Bottom line here; if DJ's had enough talent to wrap some other great indie/electroclash tunes around these tunes and bring them out into the dance floor, it would make most other 'dancey' material sound amateurish and not particularly sophisticated. If you like this dude's voice, check out Starflyer 59's OLD (2003).
