    Daniel's bump-and-grind synth lines are all campy humor. [Mar 2005, p.92]

    As an exercise in hubris and chutzpah it's a rather fascinating affair.

    this album is not perfect because it's too short (32 min), but despite this fact, this ROCKS! we want more soft pink truth!

    One of the best releases of 2004. The beats are as razor-sharp as the messages delivered in the lyrics. Fuck new wave, give me the SOFT PINK TRUTH.
