A couple of songs kick ass, but it's not my fave. I like the way it was produced - it kind of reminds me of U2's Discoteque. Most people wouldn't consider that a compliment, I know. But hell, you can't argue taste. PJ is, and always will be, at the top of my "10 Women, Who If I Have The Chance, I Have Prior Permission From My Girlfriend To Have Any Manner Of Sexual Intercourse With And Not Get In Any Trouble At All" list. This album has plenty of good moments to reccommend it. My biggest complaint is how long it took to make. She needs to hurry the hell up with the next one, dammit!

this is amazing, so pure, so untouched, so honest. it is hard to describe.it is like even pj only sings and or play only one instrument, it can be enough. she again showes that, the number of instruments are not important but whether music is clever, emotional, honest. in desperate kingdom of love she just reach perfection in vocal style. she is so confident and relaxed as a musician and funny also ! it is different from everything you hear, pure original.

This album, on the depressed edge, is poignant, conveys a feeling of hunger and want and, sometimes pain. It's really beautiful and completely connects with me. I burned my own version and left out "Shame," "Who the..." "No Child of Mine" and "Cat on the Wall" It's still long enough and grabs me completely

great mate!
Michael B gave it a 9:
Like much of her work, it takes repeated listenings and an effort to absorb the lyrics, to become attached to Peeg's art. A sparser production for sure, but still a strong amalgam of pure and raw rock.
s macgregor gave it a 5:
A mediocre album from peej. She has tried to go back to the style of the first two albums but its just not convincing this time. Nothing like as good as her best (Dry, rid ofme, to bring you my love, stories...) but probably better than the similarly half-baked "Is this Desire?"
Ze tinga gave it a 10:
A lovely record, every song is completely different from the others and it has the spectacular "It's you" :) God Bless PJ
