    Entertainment resurrects the group. Their music disconnects, only to connect again.
  2. 60
    There's still a stertility to their sound on this third album, but laced with sax, treated guitars and memorable choruses, it ranks as their best. [Jun 2009, p.109]
  3. All that seems to have been lost over the years of caning from the likes of 'We Are Electric' and 'Danse En France' are the tunes.

    It's really unfair to review this purely as a music release. Anyone who's seen them live and read their background can tell you that fischerspooner must be appreciated not only as music but also as a performance art experience culminating from many fields of discipline. That said, this is probably not as musically relevant and solid as their first album nor as accessible as their more sensible second release. Most successful attempts are "The Best Revenge" and "Supply and Demand." Expand
