KateMay 20, 200410Anyone who can call this a disapointment needs to look closer. The composition of the tracks, Chris' strained indie-esque vocals and a hard back beat make this album stunning. Well, for me anyway.

LinsharonMay 7, 20029Splinter has its weak moments. So does this album. 'Loretta..', 'Black Sheep' and 'Sick' make up for them though.

DecepticonPomJan 11, 20059Supremely refined pop. Loretta Young Silks is another belter for the angst-pop generation.

JulieKSep 7, 200510The Sneaker Pimps are just the most interesting band to me today. Corner's voice is sublime, it can make you feel a large panel of emotions. And this album is just their best (with Splinter). Excellent !

RobbieCOct 4, 20079I love this record. It's even better than their first two. The beats and sound effects are really interesting, if not entirely original. Their used well and the lyrical themes and hooks are awesome. A great dark-pop album.

ZMOct 23, 200410A really well-executed album; great beats and melodies and Chris' voice makes one wonder why they ever bothered hiring another singer in the first place.

CCMay 17, 20025Listenable, but compared to the first two Sneaker Pimps recordings, this is a disappointment.

30Sounds like a watered-down Pearl Jam spiked with a drum machine and a couple of extra synths. [Feb 2002, p.123]

70Save for a few heavy-handed tracks, such as the lame religion-as-porn clunker "Blue Movie" and the drag of "Loreta Young Silks," the disc offers a satisfyingly rich aural texture.

40Has only occasional flashes of inspiration. [Jan 2002, p.107]
