StephenS.Nov 10, 2007Weak and derivative. Some nice arrangements and guitar work, but the lads can't write for toffee. Duran Duran were and are about ten times as talented. I'm totally mystified why anyone ever promoted their cause in the first place.

Q MagazineThere's a harder edge throughout their fourth album, making them sound a little like Starsailor at times, with electric guitars getting more of a look-in this time. [Oct 2007, p.106]
