    Cookies is a fairly typical debut album, in that it sees a band define their style and stick to it. No doubt in time they'll develop their sound, but in the meantime if you're after a good soundtrack to a party grab this album, kick off your shoes and get your rocks off.

    McKeown's Marc Bolan-influenced rhymes and party-time shouts are always wryly slapdash, but the weaving bass line and expansive structure of 'Situation' indicate that 1990s still retain some of the members' arty ambitions.

    Cookies is a ridiculous record--which is, you suspect, exactly what 1990s intended.

    Not clever enough to be a joke and too uninspired to be taken seriously--put the 1990's back on the shelf. [Summer 2007, p.78]
