This disc has been rendered with creativity and panache, and it features hooky songwriting so compelling that it's easy to listen to the mere 35 minutes of material (divided into 11 three-minute long, radio-friendly songs) on a continuous loop.

MagnetA surprisingly mature effort. [#71, p.112]

Maja Ivarsson's throaty, bittersweet delivery gives the whole thing some welcome bite, but there's very little going on below the glossy surface.
-
No matter what happens on any given song (and fortunately there are far more hits than misses here), the Sounds have the advantage of having [Maja] Ivarsson at the mic.

Alternative PressTheir newfound nods to pop music... overshadow the expected balls-out rockers. [Apr 2006, p.220]
-
Slick and propulsive, the quintet needs a little meat on their songs to help elevate their slavish '80s enthusiasm into something a little more memorable.
