    The live guitars and drums--and vocals more emo than robo--give off an irresistible warmth. [Aug 2004, p.108]

    Bright Like Neon Love feels like the record The Human League could have made if they'd remade Fleetwood Mac's Rumours in 1985. It's like the soundtrack to the best party you've never been too, but always wish you had.

    Bright Like Neon Love may be too rock for the dance heads and too dance for the rockists, but for those without ideological hang-ups, it should be merely one of the most fun and exciting releases of the year.

    I can't believe I'm discovering this album now (2008), it's an amazing album, it's like a fresh cocktail of something old like the 90's and something futuristic that you can't quite see but with that cocktail in my hand I dance on without any worries of what's to come!… Expand
