    I was really disappointed with this album, although I love the band-- I bought the cd sinceI have their other album "Make up the breakdown" and I really love that.... but oh well, at least I have that one to listen to. maybe next time they will put out a more diverse album... this one sounds like one long song... :(

    Solid... the album definitely hits its marks. [Apr 2005, p.102]

    Bays' voice can be cloying, but it's hard to imagine a more laid-back singer handling these ostentatious pop songs.

    Hot Hot Heat have learned at least one valuable lesson from studying up on their pre-grunge history: the power of a tight, efficient song. [8 Apr 2005, p.62]
